For Those Who Like To Be Different When It Comes To Wheels

[4RingRook.]

I'd go Miro 111s or Vossen VS2

edit - page toppah

[Checho]

I personally have a terrible distaste for anything Vossen. That's just me though. Miro's get my vote

[Geoffafa]

I play devil's advocate with cheo all the time. I say CV1 and get the ultra concave profile all around.

[pw211]

I like the first Vossen's. Any pictures of 20's vs 22's?

[tankdeer]

Link to build? Needs more low in the rear :)

Bumping Pat's comment. Want build thread

[pw211]

Thoughts? Found a local set of Borbet Type A's.. 18x8.5 18x10.. Would have to shell out some cash in trade with my wheels..

[AWDTURBO]

I like Pat

[b6bydesign04]

I like them as well, those off John's mkv?

[chrislane31]

Miro 111s in 5x114 only go up to $19" sorry darrick.

[pw211]

yeah, he picked up centercaps though.. He wants me to do $800 right now, on top of paying for the tires to be swapped.. >:(


Working on that.

[vbrad26]

if you can afford it pat i'd say do it

[pw211]

Someone check my math here, but, I'm currently running an 18x9.5 et 38 in the rear with a 12 mm spacer = 18x9.5 et 26. Now, the Borbets would be 18x10 et 25. I know it would extend out a bit more poke wise, but tire clearance wise, I should only have 1 mm less clearance toward the fender with the tire right?

[Vorsprung]

1/2" is ~12mm so 6mm each side, plus poking out an extra 1, soooo 7mm farther out and 5mm extra in.

No idea. Was pissed when I saw that's all that was posted.

[chayden]

so guys I'm running h & r street performance coil overs and there spun all the way down (maxed out) what can i do besides buying new coils to go lower, I'm open to buying different springs but i don't know which ones to get that are lower and stiffer, I'm also down for modifying what I'm running currently. HELPZZZZ meh

my question is more where will the tire sit

Remove perches or get shorter springs. I'm running 7" Hyperco's. 6" is more common though.

that v10 e46 is so far beyond perfection it's not even calculable.

In the few days that this thread has been up it seems to be evolving into a thread about not just being different when it comes to wheels, but a thread on the whole lifestyle of being low and the whole "euro" and "dub" scene...
It has become the "chatterbox" for those who are in love with the style as much as I am...
So get on in here and check it all out!



Alright, I have noticed that there is not much creativity (for lack of a better word) with us B7ers when it comes to wheels.
So with this thread i would like people to:
Post Pics
Share Insight
Give Opinions
Ask Questions
Express Feelings
Post Up Your Wheels Specs
Etc...
I know that there are some people on here that love the "euro" look and most others that seem to not like it
So for the people that love the look lets get this thread going so maybe the ones who aren't so sure about it can see where we are coming from
I have noticed a bit of interest in people trying to be different lately...running staggered wheels...aggressive fitment...wheels from different cars etc...
So that being said...lets see what we can do...

You really shouldn't come back.

[Capt. Obvious]

You really shouldn't come back.

You were no better when you first showed up.

And you've barely improved...

[Mark.]

[DownhillA4]

Vorsprung, damn you for posting a pic of the blue bimmer wagon...love it!

Darrick... please don't start modding your FX35. I've gone since 2005 & 80k without modding my families FX35... can't afford to play with 2 vehicles!

On another note, alot of those new Hyundai Veloster's are driving around. Really digging the look and I bet it's going to look sick once kids start stancing them. I would tottally rock one of those cars as a daily.

[Mark.]

Yeah ive seen a couple velosters around they dont look bad except for that logo in the front
