New winter wheels and tyres with pics

Post by JonnyB » Sat Nov 22, 2014 5:45 pm

Was looking to buy some winter wheels a few weeks ago as was meant to be the coldest winter for a while but it's been anything but so far!

Contacted our resident wheel specialist Mr wilks with my requirements and after a couple of weeks my perfect set was put together for a very good price! Would really recommend anyone who is looking to tap up Mr wilks and see what he can do for you.

Anyway some pics below of my newly refurbished 18 inch csls with Bridgestone blizzaks all round. Wasn't too sure I would like the black rims but now they are on I love them. Tempted to get my mirrors wrapped to match :)

All I need now is some snow and cold weather to reap the rewards.

Thanks Andy. It was either get them on this weekend or wait a few more weeks so bit the bullet now so good to hear temps might be dropping, it was 13 degrees here today :(

What Eibach's are you running? Pro or Sport?

I've just ordered 18" CSL's from BM Autosport and the Eibach Pro kit.

Just the sport kit on mine. Good choice on the 18s. I have the 19s for the summer and although they look great, the ride is definitely better on the 18s. Mr wilks is the 2nd poster on this thread but sure you will see him dotted all about the forum!

Thanks. The pictures don't do it justice to be honest. I've posted more pics in Gallery/Forum Z4
