Surprise!

I picked my car up today from the dealer. I had the Inspection II done, an alignment, and one of my front control arms fixed. I also had the Style 135 wheels off the 330i ZHP put on. It looks good! Here are some pictures. I took some pictures on the lovely grass (the dead stuff) at Odiorne Point State Park in Rye.

Those wheels look great! I have been a big fan since I first saw them on the PP equiped 330s... good stuff.

Notice any difference in the ride?

You feel the road a lot more. It handles better, too. You also feel higher off the ground. The ride isn't too bad though.

Do I see Ms. Moran hastily putting her bra on in the back seat in that first photo?

you feel higher off the ground? really? isn't it the same total diameter of the total package?

Well, looks great - congrats.

I really like those wheels....seems like an updated version of my M3 wheels.

Congrats on the new wheels....now don't curb them.
