KC - Welcome to the 215 club!! I think they look great, especially with the black X!!

I always like the 87's.............but the 215's bring a breath of fresh air to your X!

Turned out great man!! And you will like the look of the new roundels. Even my wife said she liked them on mine.

FYI, Butler in Alph is the ones that installed my 215s!!

As far as the shifting, you might want to do the tranny reset using the accelerator pedal method - this might help the tranny adjust to the added weight.

Still have the 87's, going to clean them up and get shipping quotes together next week.

gianvito16 whats thier user name on ebay?
Ebay name: toomucheffort

FYI: you can still call Eurotech directly and order wheels from the warehouse. I would check prices there first before ordering.

X Foomph :thumbup: Very nice King. They look a little different to what I imagined.

Maybe later on show us some pics with brake dust on just before you wash the beast and a couple post wash.
No problem, going to drive her a lot today and give it a proper wash tomorrow. Thanks!

x555a At risk of getting blasted im gonna say im not a fan of either the chrome or the new pewter wheels.However there different and different is good.
And by the way i'm definatley not a fan of that team in your avatar being a liverpool fan all i can say is 4-1 :D though that has no bearing on my judgement of your wheels.
Ah Merseyside...you may have won the battle, but we will win the war...again..THIS year!:nanana: That makes it 18 EPL titles, tied with the little reds! Hopefully we'll see you in the Champions League Final.

are those the new toyo proxes 2's? They look awesome, especially with the rim shoulder on the tire

Right on Dawg, the reset worked great. Was I supposed to get a thumbs up on the dash or something?

I emailed the seller on when the roundels will arrive...no response:banghead:

Looks great. I have been contemplating those rims myself since you first posted.

Does that seller offer those wheels in a staggered set up?

RMak 03-21-2009 01:49 PM

Looks terrific!
