New wheels for my e92
When I bought my car last year, it had LM reps on it (see my signature below). One of the rear wheels developed a crack … which then multiplied into three cracks! And one of the front wheels had a bend on the outer lip. So rather than repair or replace the two buggered rims (especially since the other wheels were rashed and stained), I decided to give the Alzor 730 wheels from a ECS Tuning a shot. They're inexpensive, but they seem to be decent wheels. They're low-pressure cast and weigh in around 27lbs. I decided to go with a square setup with 8" wheels and 235/35/19 Hankook V12s all around. I'd prefer a 8.5" wheel, but that wasn't an option. I'll need to add spacers to the rear sooner than later, but so far I'm pretty happy with how they look on the car. I hope to get better pictures soon, but for now …

Ha! It was 60-something Sunday when I took these pics. That little girl will play outside all day long and I love it!

Unfortunately standard BMW caps won't fit, so I'll have to get stickers to put over the caps I have. I'll probably do that at the same time I get spacers for the rear.

Nice wheels... One suggestion on your Aero Lip.....Wrap it in carbon fiber to hide the scratch on the front I did it to mines because of all the rock chips.. Just a temporary fix until i get my Mtech front.. But it still looks good with the wrap on both sides and the center exposed.

R1 Concepts slotted and dimpled rotors. They're a vendor on the forum. I have Stoptech pads, but I'm not terribly happy with them. Might go with Performance Friction Z-Rated pads next time.
