love the 210's

The 214's are absolutely fantastic, thx for posting the pics.

Who is going to be the first to switch the run flats with normal tyres? Does anyone know offhand what the $ damage will be for a 285 or 315 runflat ? Going to hurt bad.....almost like being double barreled a thoroughbred yearling....!

Cheers,

I saw 2 of the new E70's at Herb Chambers in Boston a few days ago...one was a 3.0si and the other a 4.8i (but it was actually just a 4.8 because the "i" was missing) non sport I believe...any way...I looked at the new front suspension and saw what looked like a "wish bone suspension"...so i was wondering how do you fit after market larger wheels on that if the stock 18 barely cleared the suspension...is that why you need the sport suspension to get the 214's? ANd if so how is the sport suspension different? just curious I may be wrong just what i saw!

Style 168 is my favorite style also, and I may get them for my E70. 1/2" Difference in total width will not be noticed, especially since what counts the most - the tires - are the same width on both new 214 and 168 styles: 275-20's in front and 315-20's in the rear.

Does anyone know if the 168's will fit the E70? I believe the bolt pattern is the same, but I'm not sure about the hub size.

I would love to see the 239's on an Alpine White with the aero kit . That's what I want . Anyone here with a sweet side shot with the 239's that I can Photochop white?

Don't laugh, but I actually photochopped 212s onto a white w/aero because that's what I'll be getting..



(only the fronts in the chop but it gives me a good idea)

I'd do the 239s for you but I haven't seen them at that angle to chop in.

The 212's are my second choice, I'm sure they will look amazing on the white . I may go that route if I can't get a "reasonable" deal on the others. Have you priced out the aero kit yet?

239 and 128 look good on E70 aside from floral designs.
