Preview of my new alloys......

[sars]

Okay, so today I went out, purchased a trolley jack, so that I could have a look at my new BBS alloys in situ , rather than wait for another three months to see them...... yes patience I do not have in abundance, so here it is. Think they look gorgeous on, however the suspension, after being jacked, has not settled down so the gap is a tad excessive.

But it does give the general gist of what they are going to be like.....................have just one problem, you really notice the brake callipers through the spokes, so will probably have to paint them.....Red or Black???

Oh sars, they look great and really suit the Zed.

Agree, your car looks more like an X4 with the gap in the wheel arch. :?

As for the brake callipers, silver would be my choice!

Just changed the front wheel, all by my little lonesome, however need someone to break the fronts to fit the spacers properly......Kryton you forget I'm a mechanical engineer, working with Metal is my life. To be honest, if you put your mind into something, there isn't anything you can't do.

Black for the calipers

Is there much difference that you noticed in the wheel and tyre weight?

 

[Darren Slone]

Looking good, black calipers for me!!

Weights seem pretty similar, well not enough for me to notice the difference casually that is

You might find after moving the car it settles the height more...

Looks good.

Very nice, I approve

Think they're the same as what Nosa has on his E85? (minus the beer bottles...)

Great wheels Sars.....I dare you to drive with just one BBS wheel out of 4......

Looks nice! You could drive a Z4 through that wheel gap though. We'll need more pictures with all 4 on and the suspension settled.

Didn't mean to sound condescending, I just thought it would require a decent bit of strength to undo the wheel nuts
