Post up some mounted pics. BTW do they paint the outside of th rim or something. I've never seen one black like that. MGregski 02-16-2004, 07:17 PM Sweet looking wheel. Let's see them mounted. E36Fossy 02-17-2004, 01:06 AM those are sweet, i wish i bought BBS wheels bimbum 02-17-2004, 04:24 AM heavy mothers ain't they? :p mine were painted black inside too, very nicely done. Aguapolo17 02-17-2004, 04:25 AM Did you order those through Outkastaliens or through the Ebay guy? Are they 18x8's or 18x9's too? I ordered mine through Outkastaliens and they still aren't here. I can't decide if I should cancel the order and keep the money, or if I should wait for the wheels. CHAMBMW 02-18-2004, 10:26 AM you should wait for the wheels. i also ordered mine through Outkast. u will have them shortly...early march. i'm anxious to get them on too! but just wait...it'll all be worth it. cham Aguapolo17 02-18-2004, 03:49 PM Early march?...outkast told me they had a set for me at the end of january, and i still haven't seen them...i think i'd rather have the money CHAMBMW 02-18-2004, 05:44 PM same here...if i don't get them like he promised. i'm getting my money back. flea7 02-18-2004, 08:19 PM Originally posted by Aguapolo17 Did you order those through Outkastaliens or through the Ebay guy?

I can't decide if I should cancel the order and keep the money, or if I should wait for the wheels. hello all, Sorry ive been away. Just got back from vegas. I got them from RC on ebay. $595 + $95 shipping. I got them in 5 days. They are a set of 18x8. Just waiting form my tires ....will post pic of it when mounted. DravisAR 02-20-2004, 12:26 AM Way sweet....theyd be my choice too. Sun in washington, can't beleive it! and its gone now... flea7 02-20-2004, 01:16 AM Got a little sun today!!! Anybody know a good place to get new silver lug nuts for my new wheels. What size lock nuts do I need??? Hey DravisAR, Know a good place to get wheels mounted and balanced somewhere in seattle???? I just got my tires in. bimbum 02-20-2004, 03:09 AM I just used my oem lugs. they seem way better made than the others I bought (and returned), plus the new ones were too long to fit anyways. get locks too. almost there! looking forward to your ride pics :D flea7 02-20-2004, 04:05 AM well, They are black. how do they look?? DravisAR 02-20-2004, 04:40 AM I'd pretty much say any kind of firestone style place will do it well...just request to watch them do it, so you can make sure they dont scratch up the rims. I usually do that a couple times until I trust the guys. Once ya bullshit with them for awhile they can be pretty cool. Then again, im a paranoid asshole when it comes to my cars and always request to watch them work on my car, as I cant mount and balance my own stuff :) What color is your car? Snap up some pics once you get those bad boys on! flea7 02-20-2004, 04:46 AM I have anarctic silver 328i. no mods. I have those ugly bottle caps on right now so the evo's should improve its appearance. What is a reasonable price for all four mount and balance? bimbum 02-20-2004, 06:18 AM black lugs look fine. they're so small and recessed in there anyways. matches the black shadow of the EVO spokes too. my vote is you save your money on new lugs. my wheel pics on this thread (http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=172863) oh yeah a trick I heard, was to mount the tires on from the back of the rim. that way any scratches will be hidden to the inside. but a competant shop should be able to do the job with no damage regardless. flea7 02-20-2004, 10:20 PM I think your right bimbum. I think I will use the black lugs. What kinda locks did you use??? bimbum 02-21-2004, 01:18 AM mcguard puzzles was all they had. thinking about getting another different set too later. CHAMBMW 03-01-2004, 12:23 PM updates? do you have any pictures with them on your car by now? flea7 03-06-2004, 02:48 AM sorry it took me so long to post pics. It always rains here in washington!!! kinda sunny today!! here they are. enjoy.:clap: flea7 03-06-2004, 02:49 AM 2 flea7 03-06-2004, 02:50 AM 3 flea7 03-06-2004, 02:52 AM 4 flea7 03-06-2004, 02:53 AM 5 flea7 03-06-2004, 02:54 AM 6 flea7 03-06-2004, 02:55 AM 7 flea7 03-06-2004, 02:57 AM Ok, last one. that's my dogs nose on the left....she a black lab!:laugh DravisAR 03-06-2004, 03:04 AM Yeah we got a little window of sun around 4-6 didnt we? Im on the fence....slammed it would look perfect, IMHO flea7 03-06-2004, 03:56 AM yeah , i'm looking into h&r but the new ones really dips in the rear so i think im gonna go with eibach's flea7 03-06-2004, 03:57 AM also need a front lip and rear lip spoiler! CHAMBMW 03-14-2004, 05:38 PM man, nice wheels!! those wheels do really compliment the car!! can't wait to get mines....18x9 (rear)..some lippage! moO moO nEL 03-15-2004, 01:05 PM very nice looking wheels! Are they heavy? CHAMBMW 03-15-2004, 06:43 PM i heard they weigh around 25lbs. correct me if i'm wrong. that's a lil heavy, but hey... looks good. bimbum 03-15-2004, 08:05 PM :alright awww yeeeah! these are the hottest looking rims right now. very nice on your ride mang. jar_e_d is 04-08-2004, 07:23 PM What kind/size of tire did you use, do you have any rubbing?? ...just got my evos and still trying to decide on the tires. SupaBimma 04-09-2004, 03:18 AM 265/35/18 tires on stock suspension shouldn't rub huh? jar_e_d is 04-09-2004, 04:11 PM your joking...right?? mitchelrl 04-09-2004, 09:44 PM I hope you intend on lowering that 4x4 =P SupaBimma 04-10-2004, 12:55 AM so is that a yes or no? jar_e_d is 04-10-2004, 10:01 AM that's a DEFINATE no. 225's sometime rub in the back so ther is no way (w/out MAJOR modification) that 265's would fit. SupaBimma 04-10-2004, 03:50 PM hmm, even 265 35 on stock suspension? hmm, i guess i'll have to used my 255's then BeeMeR On 19'z 04-20-2004, 11:43 AM i have 265's in the rear..i have 19x8.5 in the front and 19x9.5 in the back.. and my car doesnt rub. i have a 325i sedan. it only rubs with my fenders wen i go over a big bump. and i have h&r sport springs on mine. how to i post up pics on here..i tried clicking that insert image button..but i dont know how to paste the pictures on.. can someone tell me how. black525 04-20-2004, 06:07 PM nice! I like those, the only this is theyre probably a pain to clean. SupaBimma 06-03-2004, 08:01 PM did you use those hub adapters (to get rid of vibration)?? if so where did you get them and for how much. jar_e_d is 06-03-2004, 09:46 PM did you use those hub adapters (to get rid of vibration)?? if so where did you get them and for how much. I didn't use them. SupaBimma 06-03-2004, 10:04 PM any vibration? jar_e_d is 06-04-2004, 10:09 AM Nope. FrozenSTIFF 06-04-2004, 06:19 PM I also didn't have to use the hub adapters for my 97 M3 sedan. The rims were a nice tight fit on my hubs, just like the stocks wheels, so I assume the EVO's are hub-centric for my application. No vibrations at any speeds (at least up to 120mph). Actually it took me a few days to get used to the steering which was virtually vibration free compared to my stock wheels. If any EVO owner needs the aluminum hub adapters, PM me. Robert SupaBimma 06-04-2004, 07:20 PM ORDERED my set, they are the staggered bright silver 18x8,18x9 HP evos. There has been a minor delay but b/c of the delay I will be getting free Aluminum hub adapters free so either way i should be set. I will take pics as soon as they are done. jar_e_d is 06-05-2004, 01:49 AM what size tire are you puting on the 18x9? SupaBimma 06-05-2004, 02:25 AM most probably 255's, if i do some extreme fender shaving I will later try 265's so i can get traction for the TS. |
