What to do with an old wheel.... - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

J-Spec Dan · 01-05-2013, 02:08 PM

Damaged a Style 162 last winter and it wasn't worth repairing. Mom gave me an idea and went out and got me a kit. Here's what happened to that wheel...

Opened up a hole in a wheel cap to fit the clock

Test fit

Final product!

hahaha fitment is great

JasonDCarton · 01-05-2013, 02:20 PM

Clever mom hahahaha

Amini77 · 01-05-2013, 02:28 PM

Hahaha! That's creative. Clean up the curb rash and it'd look a lot better.

skim7x · 01-05-2013, 02:30 PM

Cool idea... props to mom... but you need longer hands on that thing... looks kind of ridiculous with such tiny hands =P

StevenY. · 01-05-2013, 02:36 PM

That's neat! I would clean up the curb rash and maybe try to get some of the grime off and it would look awesome.

yeah, the hands are way too small, for sure. i could barely tell what time it was from across my garage. it's a good novelty piece, haha.

Alen E90 · 01-05-2013, 02:51 PM

woow that looks AWESOME!

really nice job but as others have stated bigger hands will look a lot better along with the curb rash fixed, thanks for sharing

Route 16 · 01-05-2013, 03:21 PM

Nice, I opt for the used ugly dirty look.

06E90Rostik · 01-05-2013, 03:38 PM

1slowbmw · 01-05-2013, 06:04 PM

cchong4 · 01-05-2013, 06:11 PM

i'd consider cleaning the wheel thoroughly but curb rash is pretty bad and not worth fixing. i'm on the look out for larger clock hands
