Well, I promised there'd be pics so, let there be pics!

First off I haven't tackled the big brake upgrade yet which I think will make these look a lot better, but everything is there ready to do. Secondly the back wheels fit just fine but as predicted the fronts catch like a motherf****r, so I'm going to need smaller tyres. Now, on with the show!

Off with the old...

Look great, love the dish on the rears :thumbsup:
I like them with the bbs caps on too.

What bolts are you using out of interest? They look smart
 
Looking great OP. :thumbsup:

Glad you kept the BBS caps too - I mean they are BBS wheels, so why would anyone put BMW centres on them?
 
Wheels look great! But I would be more focused on tidying up the number plate and missing tow plug. :!:

But I do have OCD.

It was a particularly scruffy day and the front does look untidy, it hasn't received any special attention for a while. I have the tow cap I just haven't got around to painting it yet, this was just a quick run down to the lockup in the rain to try on some new boots.

When taking more care the front usually looks quite decent minus tow cap, the number plate matches the grill.

Looks good but theres a bit too much arch gap to pull the look off, in my opinion.

What would you suggest? If I go lower the front diffuser wont clear a speed bump or a dip in the road, otherwise I'd get the springs on offer in the buy / sell section.

Can I lower just the rear?
