New wheels on

Post by Jimmer » Mon Feb 08, 2016 6:40 pm

So got my wheels on today, really impressed its transformed the car.. In my opinion obviously. Loads of people were staring as I passed and was probably thinking one of two things.

1- that Z4 looks smart as f**k
2- check this to**er with his roof down in February

I like a lot :thumbsup:
My little blue zed is in lots of bits. With lots of things started and not many finished! I may have found the limits of my time and ability!!

Cheers boys, wheels were originally on my black M135i but with losing my job it has to go back

I didn't know if the wheels was going to fit so just tried. They are 18x8 et40 and 18x9 et42 unsure of standard offset on the Z

Don't think the et + width numbers are wrong , a bit more rubber around the wheel & they would sit better in the arches
That's jmo on that as many prefer the less rubber look :wink:

Or they was thinking why has that Z not got a stubby aerial :poke:

Nice wheels I like the colour as well nice to see something a bit different :thumbsup:

Ha ha, no way that's so funny because I'm going to the car scrapyard tomorrow to grab one as I believe pretty much any Peugeot or Citroen one should fit. I was supposed to do it this afternoon but ran out of time.
