Eh. I've come pretty far regarding everything else, but wheels are like shoes. Throw 'em out when they get old for something new.


I've actually been on the fence about this since way before this thread. I mean, the LTW's and Beyerns put together are easily worth something much nicer. I'm pretty much just wondering whether I should give the LTW's a shot before moving on.

No worries though. I'm pretty busy atm to do anything now anyway, so I've got time to think about it.

You've come this far.. Who cares what we think?

[M.Burroughs]

I say do work.

Damnit, lol. I bought the wheels on impulse like 2 months ago because I couldn't pass up the offer. And now, since it's what I've got, I figured it couldn't hurt to try it out. But now I'm wondering whether the $40 to get the tires mounted would even be worth my time. Kthx you guyth.

[SeanDub]

^^ what he said.


Also I don't like LTW's so its fightin a losin battle for me. Just do whatever you see fit.

You'd have a much easier time getting LTW's flush if you weren't running extemely small tires. Honestly, with 205/40-17 on a 17x7.5 ET40-something rim you are going to need 25mm spacers in the front to get flush.

[Paul]

gonna need a lot more than 15 to be flush I think

Fwiw, I bought the wheels and spacers from E36M34life. Here's the exact setup on his car, with the 12.5's (had it wrong in the earlier post) up front and 15's in the back.



Not exactly flush, but I'm thinking I'll move the 15's up front and trade off the 12.5's for 18mm spacers. Do you think that'll do?

And here's the rest of the pics, cause I know you guys are bored, lol. http://s239.photobucket.com/albums/ff95/Paul_Yoo/Greg/

Noooo M-Package and LTWs
Imho your car looks better as it sits right now than it ever will with LTWs and an M-Package. But as long as you like it...

LOL, sorry to leave you behind the dust. You should come join the dark side.

Are you going to be running huge spacers on the LTW's?

I've got a pair of 12 and 15mm spacers laying around, but I don't think they'll be enough. :/

prefer your current wheels over the LTW's...just not a fan of LTW's

Hah, LTW's aren't my favorites either but I like them better than the beyern meshes, plus I got them from a friend for reaaally cheap. So yeah. :P

I'm digging it, looks very clean.

Be prepared for some fender gap when you switch to those 205/40-17's.

Cool cool
