De-badged, re-badged* and tinted 35% Suntek Carbon.

(*) dealer screwed it up - it was 8mm off left from center and about 1inch too low!

A little teaser what's coming up next

 

[Alwaysforward]

dareckibmw, those wheels look awesome. Can't wait to see them installed. What brand are they?

 

[dareckibmw]

Thank you.

Those are VELGEN VMB5 Matte Gunmetal in 20×9″ front and 20×10.5″ rear.

Same wheels as Huddleston have on his white G2

Nice!

 

[dareckibmw]

Unfortunately, I'll have to wait a few months to get tires/sensors and put them on. Wife said, that my allowance money were used up long time ago, even before she got me those wheels

An update.....

My emergency funds has been released, should have those wheels mounted and installed next week

I'll be ordering TPMS sensors and Michelin Pilot Super Sport tomorrow

In the meantime, I installed a new license plate frame. Replacing chrome with brushed finish. It looks good and a better match with wings and windows frames.

Yes, yes.....the pictures are mandatory so, here you go

Ok, first, love the new car and wheel choice. But I am confused as to why you would buy new TPMS sensors.

Is this the whole Summer Wheels / Winter Wheels exchange program?

I live in San Diego and have the same wheels and tires all year.

Yes, that is correct. I"ll use my OEM wheels/tires as a snow set, since those are all season tires. Not better than my Blizzak's, but it will have to do.

I wish my snow set from 1G would work on 2G, though.

Anyone interested? perfect condition.

235/50R18 Bridgestone Blizzak LM-60 tread depth is 8/32

tire size....I also have a set of 235x50-18 snows from a prior car. Does anyone know if they would fit on a 2015 3.8 AWD? If so I will start to look for a set of compatible wheels.
thanks

Yes it is! and it will be even faster next week, after I put new wheels on and drop it on ARK springs

Will definitely do! as soon those parts arrive at home, I'll try to wrap this up asap. Most likely it will take approx. 2 weeks from today.

Switching to Nitto 555, since Michelin PSS can't promise when those 285/30/20 will be available.

 

[Ernie3647]

I like the color ...a lot!

 

[dareckibmw]

All pieces to the puzzle have already arrived ..... most are in the house and tires are at Discount Tires Store - appt. at 10am tomorrow

 

[srobak]

Digging those rims. Can't wait to see the end result.
