Hey everyone, I got some new wheels, what do you think? :)
 
Out the door goes the 17x7.5 Mono II's chromies!

I got 3 center caps, one on order coming tomorrow. So now I have right side w/ the caps left one w/o.

Wheels are Bekker's replica of the SL 2piece. the wheels are actually 1 piece. 18x8. Rubbing? Son of gun yes. Tomorrow I goto TWS to take care of it.

Tires: Bridgestone Potenza RE750 225/40/18

Excellent pick of wheels. Will you get all the scraping out?? Huge size for that wheel well.....Looks great !!!! Do they come in 17's????

The Godfather 05-06-2003 10:28 AM

They do come in 17's. I will get rid of the scrapping by pushing the fenders outward a little bit.

Very stunning car. I want wheels like those for my 126...I hope they make them for mine. The only suggestion I would have is to have those lips mirror polished. That would look awesome.

I can also tell that those two Huge bass speakers in your trunk lowered your rear just right !!!! HEE HEE HEE

haha Thanks freestyler :P Time for you to go 18's!

The offset on the website was said to be 37..turns out it wasn't and was 34.

I went and had the fenders rollers, some of the body cladding cut away, and metal toward the front of the fender, and bumpstops put on my shocks, now I get no rubbing whatsoever, even under hard turns, hard braking, or loaded w/ 3 people :D

Dr. Clean
 
Nice job / that looks clean enough to eat from...

All you need now is some new black chrome trim to replace your sunburned strips...

; )


PS - F--K the 5-0: tint your front windows the same % as the rear sides and start limpin' down the street
in a white suit with an ivory cane with a silver skull ornament to lean on!!!


Peaaaaace: see you in the French Quarter, sho'nuff, Doctor!
