New Wheel Pics and Review
 

The rain stopped for a couple hours today and I was finally able to take some pics of my new wheels on my car.

They're 17" Mille Miglia mm 11-2 sports with Kumho Ecsta ASX 235/40/17 tires. I had stock wheels and tires on before, and it's a very different ride now. The steering is a bit stiffer and I notice more tramlining, but it's worth it for the handling improvement, which is better than I thought it would be. I've had a lot of fun driving around the last few days, and haven't felt any scraping at all. My car even feels faster! I bet the wheels added like 10 hp, hahaha ;)

My friends don't understand why you'd spend money on a car if everything works, so I'm glad I have you guys to share the excitement with!

Yup! That's my 318ti.org sticker in the window ;)

they look sweeeet! it looks very nice ;)

Looking good. Time to consider a new suspension?

Regardless, the ride is looking nice.

Wow those look great, where and how much did you pay for them. I was considering those a while back, those just look fantastic!

Yes! Now I want to upgrade the suspension even more, but that'll have to wait a few months cause I'm saving up for a vacation. :)

Thanks! :biggrin: I got them off of Tirerack for about $1100 with tires and shipping. Not bad for a new pair of shoes. :) The style has been discontinued, so I'd order them soon if you plan to get them cause they don't have many left and won't be selling them anymore. :(

those are nice! simple straight lines. all the best looking wheels a like those!

I agree, a bit like the OEM 16" sport rims only in 17" with thinner spokes, perfect imho

these would be perfect for me:

Swits.....ignore ur friends. Mine says the same thing, and they're....guys:eek:
For me buying stuff for my car to look and feel good is the same thing as buying shoes and clothes...:wink:
Those wheels are nice....I, too, have tramlining after switching to 17s. On top of that......harder bounces. Well of course I ugraded to H&R springs....woul've preferred Bavauto's or Eibach's.....not as stiff....:redface:

Nice rims Swits,looks really nice on your car.






IMO those rioms would look stupid on a ti with that big of a dish.

Have you started saving for suspension yet!?:biggrin:

Probably the best price I've seen anywhere.

Right now I'm saving to go to Japan in the Spring, then it's time for car stuff. Although since I just got new wheels and tires, we have to do some work on my bf's E30 before it's my turn for mods again. :rolleyes:
