Preliminary pics of the new wheels/tires

[Janderson]

This is by no means a photoshoot, but the wheels are on, and I had to take a few pics. They are mounted, but I can't drive the car yet. I got the adapters, but the overlap plugs I was sent were for a 5x114.3 set, not a 5x120. So I sent them back to the manufacturer, and they are supposed to be sending me a new set on the double.

But here's a few shots to show fitment. It also seems to be sitting higher than usual, but it's probably because it's been up on jackstands for over a month, it will probably settle down some when I drive it. Enjoy!









And my new valve stem caps:

Nope, it's a bumper-swapped '86 325e.

Thanks for the compliments guys, I knew the valve stem caps would be a hit.
