My new wheels (kind of)

[Tinyvan]

I got these wheels two years ago and ran them for a bit. Over the winter I have sloooowly rebuilding them. If every thing works out I should have them on the car Wednesday

Always a fan of those wheels BUT I bet it's got to be a bitch cleaning them.

Your car is going to look really hot with those wheels.... They are gorgeous.

Nice wheels. Classic 80's BBS!!

Anything that is a classic is timeless and never out of style regardless of popular trends and fashion changes.

Yea a wheel like BBS can never go out of style. I held the wheel up to the car and it looks amazing, around here you dont realy see any cars with wild color wheels just the basic Silver, black and gold.

One wheel still leaks, but I wenr ahead and mounted the othere three

I like them... They look to be right on the edge of having enough clearance, do you think that rubbing is going to be a problem???

[Tinyvan]

they actually fit alot better then I thought, I thought it would have a bit of poke. I have not driven it much but im thinking no more rubbing then what I have, which is totally livible

I am glad for you..... I sometimes hear my right front tire scrape on a fastener that I can't get to move outward from the tire but is only on a bump while making a right turn, it always makes me cringe when it does it.

Look good. Those are right in the sweet spot of hanging out or not. :p

My 5mm spacers came in for the rear today. I might have actualy been able to get away with a 10mm spacer, what do you guys think?

5mm makes more of a visual difference than I would have imagined.... The wheels in the color you chose has made your car have a one of a kind look that has grown on me... Your efforts paid off.

[Tinyvan]

Thanks Village. Kind of as I expected, a lot of people really don't know what to think of the color combo. The most common comment I get is "I liked your volks better" The nice thing is that it really doesn't bother me, but it definitely is always nice when people do tell me they like them.

[VillageIdiot]

I am not saying that I like the way your car looks to be nice, but because every time I have seen it in recent photos I have to take some time to look at it..... It is kind of like the little girl that you haven't seen in a while that has blossomed into a dignified beauty..... I liked the looks of your car before the wheels and thought the wheels and color might not work very well together. Sometimes being wrong about something can be a pleasant surprise.:)
