My shiny new wheels now fitted

[dpbayly]

Hi all well finally got my new wheels fitted, Ive had them since last Wednesday but they were a Christmas gift from my wife although she only found out today that's what she got for me....when I told her

Here's a few pics:

My old wheels first:





And now onto the new ones:











Ignore the BBS center caps they supplied the wrong ones and the BMW ones are on there way.

Wheel specs are as follows:

22 Inch
10J wide
Offset ET35
Fitted with 285/35 R22 tyres


I love the OEM look of these wheels as they look like the E70 style 214's just bigger.

Thanks guy's

It's a 2001 and it's the 4.4 V8 running LPG so costs less to run than the 3.0 diesel

Little too big, IMHO, but sure better than the old one.

It's the filler point for the LPG (liquid petroleum gas) for the LPG system, the system was already fitted when I bought the car as it's not where I would have chosen to have it mounted unfortunately.
