///M Wheels Experiment: Satin Graphite PICS!

Wow they look even better fitted, I really do love that colour :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Cheers I'm definitely happy with them. Just need to do the fronts. Paint and fit my new sideskirt, and paint front and rear bumpers then it will look half respectable :rofl:

Looks good.

Did you know you have the wrong profile tyres though, should be 255/40 on the back.

Yes I do lol. They also aren't a matching pair lol. My rears were ruined but I couldn't afford to spend 300 plus on a pair. My dad was down at his regular tyre place (he's a taxi driver) and picked me up a pair of nearly new 255/35's for 45 quid. 7mm tread on both one Conti and one Bridgestone.
It really is annoying me tbh especially as they don't match the fronts although it's not that big a difference. I've just managed to get a discount on a set of h&r springs for her so I'll see which profile suits best and either drop a profile on the front or back up on the back.
 
Fantastic quality job, it almost looks like the wheels have been photoshop airbrushed to hide the imperfections!
I'm not going on this thread any more, as my OH will want them this colour if she sees them :roll:
 
They look stunning. Never seen a wheel in that colour before and my god it works.

I'm saving the pics for when i need a refurb!
 
Haha no photoshop here! Wouldn't have the foggiest idea how to use it anyway :rofl: can't wait for my new springs to come. Should set the wheels off even more.

Thats going to look rather lovely when the rest are done. Nice job.

Thanks :) I've just painted my new sideskirt so that will help finish off the passenger side a little. Just need to get my mates candy red wheels out of the way then I can do my front wheels :)
Can't wait for my springs to come also but apparently they'll take 1-2 weeks as they are special order :( so impatient!

You need to patent that wheel colour combo, every manufacturer will be after that as I have a car coming that I think the winters would look epic using it.

Fab job

Great work as usual buddy :thumbsup:

Thanks :)
It was dark when I fitted them so am excited to see the results in the morning.
do you make spacers MM? I want some when I fit my H&Rs XD
 
I have been known to knock them up. Don't make a habit of them incase they are incorrectly mounted and other problems. I will PM you tomorrow buddy :thumbsup: I think we can do a deal........
 
comments welcome?
