My CSL Wheels are Lonely!

Mr. 5 · 06-05-2007, 10:43 PM

I just picked them up the other day and my car is arriving at port the 11th. They'll just be sitting all by themselves in my garage.

The wait is killing me!

Nice, in the mean time, why don't you clean them up. Get that lube off of them.

That is awesome!! Got them waiting!

Using your OEM set up as a winter set?

No, I'm in Socal so there's no such thing here.

The OEM wheels are going up for sale as soon as I get my car.
The day I get my car is the day I'll change the wheels.

True, I will do that.

These are the bomb!!!!!! i m in the same situation, my car is at VPC tho, should be another couple days :rocks:

Neema · 06-05-2007, 11:55 PM

I love CSL.....thats gonna look great. Dont worry about another week of waiting. I had the tires sitting in my garage waiting for my iForgeds and car for 3 months!!! Ordered car on december 12th, picked it up on feb 23rd......It was an agonizing wait haha

GS833 · 06-06-2007, 12:26 AM

But you only have three of them!!...

lovemyBimmer · 06-06-2007, 01:10 AM

+1 Why three only? Those look nice!

fishyman · 06-06-2007, 03:09 AM

is that the standard finish? it could be the light, or my eyes playing tricks on me, but it looks gunmetalish

walbjj · 06-06-2007, 07:31 AM

Well, by reading the sidewall through all the man gravy left on them, I am going to guess they are Generals

Mr. 5 · 06-06-2007, 08:35 AM

OK guys, I only got 3 because I thought it would look cool!

The 4th is leaning against the other wall.

Anyway, these are staggered. 19x8.5 and 19x9.5; 235/35, 265/30 Generals.

ducati955 · 06-06-2007, 10:44 AM

nice.......... i think i will end up getting those too... are you going to place the "m" sticker on the wheels?

You know, I'm still thinking about that.
I have the stickers at home, but I'm trying not to put anything that displays the "M" on my car because it's just my preference. I had an M3 before and IMO, it's just wrong to display any sort of M reference, unless it was a package. Again, it's my opinion.
I wanted the M shif knob, but it would bug me to see that M logo on the shift knob while driving a non M car, so that's why I went with the standard all leather shift knob.

No, but the pictures look like they are.
These are the standard CSL, but i think the flash in the dark made them look a little darker than they actually are. Weird, but cool!

fishyman · 06-06-2007, 12:42 PM

yah you should go get them painted/stained/whatever to look like they do in the picture...cuz thats bad ass

bronco · 06-06-2007, 02:43 PM

Yeah, I thought they were gunmetal...hmmm

Mr. 5 · 06-06-2007, 03:47 PM

I had a sort of gunmetal finsh on RS4 reps on my GLI and they looked sick!

milehigh5000 · 06-06-2007, 11:04 PM

im not sure if i wanna put gunmetal csl's on my black sapphire e92..im not sure if it would look good without much contrast..then again, they could look amazing on it..the only thing i wouldnt like is they dont have a lip
