It appears there is still a trace of "boy racer" left in me as I'm finding myself now messing around with my recent daily, despite telling myself I would leave it as is.
Who was I kidding, lasted about a week before I grabbed the toolbox!
I know its a subjective topic, but I'm after some opinions on wheels.
I'll need tyres in about a months time, so have been mulling over different wheels and trying to get it sitting right.
(apologies for the terrible photos).
The car came with Style 351 wheels;
I never really liked the slimmer wheels at the rear and prefer a staggered setup, so I then ended up with my current setup.
Style 613 with wider rears, spacers, lowering springs at the front and rear ride height adjusted;
Quite happy with how it currently sits, however I have a set of 19" BBS LM replica wheels left over from my e39 days, so I tried them on earlier whilst I was carrying out some other preventative maintenance bits on the car.
The rear sits almost perfectly in my opinion, but the arch gap at the front is an almost deal-breaker for me - I'm not sure!
The wheels need tyres anyway (and a good polish), so would probably up the profile from 30 to 35 on the front to help hide the arch slightly.
Spacers would need replacing for narrower / removing as the wheels sit too far out the arch on the front.
My other option is to go for something else entirely, so would be open to suggestion, quite like the "Fast FC04" in 20"
