Sd76 new wheels on!

**Sd76** · 08-02-2016 06:16 PM

Hey guys I finally got my wheels I want to thank Arnel ( tireguy) for getting these wheels from Americas tire! they are the TSW Bathurst 21x10x5 275/30/21 in gunmetal. Arnel was amazing with communication shipping knowledge etc. I can't not thank him and recommend him enough!!!

Now. In a week and a half I WILL BE putting on coilovers to give me the right stance but in the interim enjoy the new pics

They look 100 times better in person super concave snd love the rear wide look now!!!

Thanks Arnel!!!! You are the man!!!!

Sport suspension?

Yes have the sline sports suspension I just put them on so I hope it comes down a tad more as I drive... I know it still will look high though.

But I will be putting coils on in a week and a half and that should finish off the look very well.

You went with 10 1/2 wide? What were you at originally.? I just ordered 19 x10 using my 255x40 r19 tires. Hoping the fitment will be good. Did you notice any difference in the ride?

Looks really good, stay away from curbs, doesn't look like you have any lip guard at all.

**Djpeaksd** · 08-02-2016 11:08 PM

Looks awesome! I think I'm biased though

Yup agreed. They certainly are better in this color on my car. Look great in person. Really excited now to do the coils to get rid of that heinous wheel gap! Should look sooooo much better after that!

Perfect! You nailed it - once you put coilovers on that'll put the cherry on top...

**Stan77** · 08-03-2016 07:16 AM

Medved approves the wheels

I'll go drink some vodka for that reason

Hmmmm. Looks much higher than my A7 with sport package. Im wondering if its an illusion of the shorter profile on the 21s. I've been debating between 20s and 21 (have stock 20s now), but dont want to mod the suspension if I dont have to. I figure I can get away with stock on wider 20s but with 21s a drop most likely a must. Ugh - 21s look so good.

Do the 21's you will have buyers remorse. They look amazing in person and tweaking the suspension once in my life is needed!!! I won't do this again in my life so I'm going to do it! Yes these tires are 275/30/21 they are low profile but they look awesome so worth it. 20's on the 7 series sre ok. But they need 21's it looks like an entirely different car. Do it!!!

Hahaha! You are completely right about the buyers remorse. I feel it every time I resolve to go with 20s and I haven't even made the purchase yet! Funny thing is I looked at the bathurst as well. I have savanna beige pearl and feel it needs a gunmetal wheel to give it its balls back. I think I need a deeper gloss than the bathurst has though.

How much did this setup run you if you don't mind me asking ? Pm if you'd like. I'm thinking of upgrading to an a7 and the 20" bbs I currently have I feel would look too small on such a big car.

20's are fine on the a/s 7 but I truly believe 21" is the perfect size for the car. Def do the 21 if you get an a7. Average price online but if your interested contact "tireguy" Arnel. He's on the board he can get you set up.

Thanks! Yes, always looked at the stock wheel inside the wheel well and now that I have s proper seated wheel it just looks like it suppose to! It's a nice aggressive look! Arnel i( tireguy) is the man for getting the setup. He knew exactly what size wheel width et to throw in there. Couldn't be happier! Well, until the coils go on!!! Ha!
