Mops Build/Pic Thread

[S5CooP]

All I have until the weekend, when I can her out. Loving the new look, and happy to have some contrast again. A nice mix of sport/class, and more modern. I feel these are the best buy in forged wheels right now.

Thanks again, Danielle You really busted ass for me. Major props to Nemesis!

Wheels are awesome. Fitment is perfect--as expected. The new BBK looks great behind them. Well done once again Ben.

[Mops@Nemesis]

Awesome! Looking good!

Damn dude, the new wheels look awesome!

Looks great!!!

awesome wheels, gentlemen. Congrats!!! More pics!

WoW!! Looks amazing especially with your car being so shiny...Love it.

Thanks, guys:) @cellg8, taking her out for pics tomorrow

[Mops@Nemesis]

New wheels looking amazing! Nice choice Mops

AWWW shittzzzzzz........ RIMS ARE HOT.zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Mops i have the same 20*10.5 set up et 30. How come my wheels in the front come more out then yours?

I liked your old wheels more the BBS CH-Rs. I loved the design and also the color match they had with your car. I thought your wheel set up was as perfect as could be before. Just my opinion.

Look so nice, Ben!

Appreciate it!!

@jessie0001 Likely because I am running a good bit of negative camber. If you were to drop yours, the front would tuck in some as well.

@MoneyB Appreciate the feedback Pretty drastic change. I still love the CH-R's. If money grew on trees, I would have kept them, and refinished in satin black. These pics do not rep the wheels that well. Let me know what you think of them tomorrow night:)

[Mops@Nemesis]

You can't improve on perfection. And never say never. And yet he did it again, perfect is now better. Great job Mops.

Superb look Mops! Perfect match to the car colour. Congrats!

Very kind!!

@eKKoMan The color/finish is my favorite part. I have missed the darker shade since my first set, the Hartmann reps.

Travis, promise to return those wheels to me, when/if you sell that RS:)

Thanks, Scott!

Really nice Mops! now you can save some time from cleaning the CH-R

[chrissurfr]

Awesome wheels man. Good job. They might look better if you put some lamin-x on them. :P

[D@Nemesis]

Mops! All i can say is...wow!

Thanks! You might think at first glance. Not the case haha.

Thank you. Nah, I think I should do custom centers, using orange reflectors;)

Mops! All i can say is...wow!

Yea, pretty much the same emotion on this end. Good stuff! Thanks so much <3

[bkkchris]

Wheels look amazing! Loved the CH-R's but I always thought these BC were really clean, modern, and a great fit on the 5! Looking forward to more shots.

[ssv22]

Ben, thats some serious wheel porn! you should put in them in a showcase in the livingroom

[YelloJello]

Sexy beast you are. Lug nuts are so shiny!

Hmm... maybe try CF or Black center caps like the CH-Rs?

Modern came to mind as well. Thanks!

That is a terrible/fantastic idea. You know how I love to display all of my die-casts. Going forward, buy 5 wheels each time, and keep the fifth to display!

Yea, not sure what I am going to do about the bolts. May leaves as is, get black ones, cover these with grey bolts caps, or go to a stud/lug nut setup and run black lug nuts. @mxrz can provide pics of the stud/nut setup. Suggestions welcomed for sure....

Also looking to do something with the caps. mxrz can make some custom Alu ones, like he did for his car, or I can get different BC ones.

Standard caps...



Other options...

[thcdp]

Bright orange cap with Lamin-X tint block

Seriously: I like the idea of the cap matching the lug color - both black? Ties in with caliper. But what do I know.

[Okan509]

I like the lugs a lot the way they are.

[H20pologoalie]

I was going to say match your calipers, but you haven't painted them yet. So instead custom from Rene with some custom scrolling in them

[MoneyB]

The CH-Rs would have been super sick in Satin Black on your car. Ahhhh i gotta forget about them. Can't wait to see more pics of your ride with the new wheels. Maybe they will grow on me. It is still to early to judge. :).


Looking forward to more pics

Hehe.

I have no better idea than anyone else. Considering black options for sure.

Leaning toward it. Just need to see if I can get a tinted finish. Not sure I want a natural alu finish.

Thanks guys! I was nervous about these. Came out better than I hoped for. I just hope the I don't see 10 sets pop up, like with the CH-R's

@Hamletcin Adams VRT. Its the shizzznit

[Hamletcin]

Cleaned and sealed:) I am so pleased. These wheels are very, very nice! Finish, sheen, and concavity are perfect for me.

Hey,
What did you use to seal it? I want to do that to my new wheels too ;-)

Cheers

[TheDapperDriver]

very nice
and that photo with the bbk is proper

[FamousLastWords]

Such unbelievable perfection Mops. I have a folder on my computer just for wheel/suspension setups and your car pretty much populates most of the images with its sexiness.

[Mops@Nemesis]

Adams quick sealant. It's an aerosol. Such a great and handy product. Good for ANY exterior surface. Wheels, paint, glass, lighting, trim etc.

^^ Nice!!! I definitely will be processing my first Adams order soon.
Thanks

For sure! Let me know if I can help. But yea, do all four wheels at once, then come back and buff them all. Whole process is 15-20 minutes.

[S5CooP]

Again, all looks great, BBK looks really sweet behind the new rims... are you going to match them?

Mops is this good for factory wheels as well?

I thought I saw you were going to paint them... Curios if you'd match up to wheel color... As well i guess you could match rear brake with brembo kit :) just to make it complete

Yea, I will in time. Not at the top of my list. I really like the black a lot, but will do something later on. Likely silver, but maybe even something bold. If I did go bold, the rears would stay as is. I could not stand to draw attention to those. If not for the ebrake issue, I would go ahead and do the matching rear kit :/

Sweet Just ordered a bottle along with some addtional Microfiber towels.
Thanks for the tip and good riddance to you brake-dust

[Teakbrown]

Looks great Mops, love the quality feel im getting from this car, from the brembo`s to the (new) wheels to the michelins and the all over beefy look. Great work!
