Hey guys, i'm really bored and i'm looking for an opinion. I want to create a general plan for what i want to do with my car and i'm not really sure what wheels would be best for me. I'd really like to get a set of style 5s but they are a little hard to find near me and I think i might just buy brand new wheels. I'd really like 17s. Anybody know of a wheel company that makes a classic looking wheel in 17" that doesn't cost me a fortune? I would be all over these if they were made in a 17" option but sadly they aren't.

I know my car is't even low yet but trust me that is to come once i get it working right

I love the e28 but the American version bumpers are ugly

[Robitussin]

Yes hahaha but i will be taking care of that!

i love the look of rileys also. but i was having trouble finding an IS bumper that was in good condition and ready to be cut up. i ended up just doing the e34 bumper retrofit on my e28. im really happy with it.

[Robitussin]

What is the difference in the is bumper? Or are you talking about the air dam? I suppose it may not look right without the is air dam on there.

Dude just give me your car //

[Robitussin]

I wish we could both have e28s so i could know a local guy who has one hahaha

[oprahhwinfreyy]

Id take any 80s BMW

[Robitussin]

Well if you had an e30 id trade ya but you want one of those too anyways right?

[oprahhwinfreyy]

yeap... Theres a black e30 for sale in Nicholassville which is exactly what I want. has 69,XXX OG miles on it. But they're asking $6,500 for it. Im trying to get an idea about selling my bug to buy something like it.

[Robitussin]

Id encourage you not to but im just not a huge bug fan hahaha

[Robitussin]

Sup guys. Today i put a sticker on my car.


And i also found out i'm going to go get a different set of style 5s from the same guy that was going to sell me a set before Friday.
(still breaking the rule of getting low before wheels i know.) But i will keep you guys updated on that. i'd really like to go with blue centers and gold bolts but i'm not too sure about buying new bolts yet. Any other opinions on the center color?

[Robitussin]

Well, here it is.

Style 5s cant remember the specs right now but i'm pretty sure they are all the same. More tomorrow should get them mounted if they fit.

wheels on

Flat tire because the valve stem is messed up.




Yeah, i know what you are thinking right now, "holy monster truck batman" but hopefully i can get coilovers after i get the car working right.
Not sure if i should wait to restore the wheels or throw some good tires on the bottlecaps and get right to it.

opinions?
