    @Crankey

    Thank you for the kind words buddy. "My" Cromodoras are looking awesome with 1.5" lips.

    About the "collection", for my personal usage i left the 10 pieces of 16" RS, staggered 15" Alpinas 6/7J, 15" OZ Fittipaldi, 18" RH ZW3, and 18 RH ZW4 - mounted on my e46 coupe now.







    I am rolling the ZW4s now, because one of the ZW3s' barrels is cracked, just ordered a 4th wheel from Germany.

    I still have a lot of wheels, but i'm gonna sell them ... one day

    collector or reseller ? sometimes you start just collecting but space forces you to be a seller/trader as well

    one thing is true, lowrider is a good seller. if any U.S. guys are up to pay the shipping from the EU he's an honest guy.
    I bought a set of Cromodoras from him and they arrived quickly.
    FedEx damaged 2 of the rims and he refunded me some money right away without any hassle and before I had a moment to send him pics of the damage.
    the wheels were also packed very well too. I took pics of all the packing material and how they were packed so he could show it to FedEx.
    the bends on the lips were small, but still a bummer. the plan was to get wider rear lips and refinish the whole set anyway.

    I was able to score some decent used lips in a wider size with the refund money.
    they started as all 8's and now they will be 8's and 9's



    the used lips I got looked like they had a light media blast to remove the clear.

    it sanded out with 600 grit paper though. then 1000 grit and 1500...Flitz polish and Wenol.
    the new 1.5 lips are looking better now. lots of work left to do....

    some staggered 8/9j forged Turbines :P



    I am thinking about painted covers and polished lips, the coilover kit is waiting to be mounted on the e46. Didn't find any e46 on Turbines in the web.

    Ok, if I have to be honest I felt very bad because of G535's comment... that's why decided to change the things and bought some wheels that I can mount right away, enjoy:

    Staggered set 17" OZ Racing Hamann Motorsport, front: 8.5j et38, rear: 9j et32.
    I've never had wheels in a such condition, they are not refurbished but are looking like brand new.















    p.s. i was joking about Mr. G535's comment, he just motivated me

    I have a wheel collection, but nothing like this. Where do you find all these?


    Also, wanna sell the 5x112 rials? I have a friend with a 190e that would be interested.
