Took a couple of pics in the light this morning after a run...
Picture, pictures, pictures. How do they drive?

The star pattern seems to give me about an extra 10% torque but otherwise they feel just like the 19s they replaced
 
I like the wheel on its own, hate it on the M4 but it’s not so bad on the Z :thumbsup:

I think spacers and suspension really can make a wheel though.

Settled down a bit now. A small spacer may improve the rear a little but I'm pretty happy with them as-is

I have a set of brand new spacers which I did not need, the spare set of wheels from my old E92 fit the E89 perfect.

I only test fitted one spacer.

Still boxed, let me know if you are interested.

Hey, thanks for the offer but I'm a bit skint at the moment. After new wheels and tyres.

No worries, I was going to say if you are local you can collect for £10, I won't be using them so they will just in the box for now.

Ah that's very kind but unfortunately I'm up in Edinburgh '(
 
They look really good Greg, when I saw what you were thinking of I wasn't sure as I had only seen them on a E85, but now seeing them on a E89 :thumbsup:

Cheers! I certainly thought I'd messed up pretty badly after ordering them but I'm seriously happy now!
 
So glad the 326 have gone!

All you need to do now is ditch the side repeaters and replace with the modern led ones :thumbsup:

Already on order. Due on Tuesday :D
 
I`m undecided on the lci indicators, not sure if they are just a bit cheap and plasticy looking.
there must be better options, or leave as is.

I do know what you mean but they're still infinitely better than the the crappy bot of plastic I have on just now!

i wonder how they would look either wrapped or carbon dipped, just dont like the shiny silver plastic.
doesnt seem to blend in with much else.
