Hope I don't get caught in any of it, because I'll be skating on the RE050As.

It's too early..

Didn't drive the E90 today, so all off/on snow and mix all day accumulated. Pics were just taken a few minutes ago (9:00 PM).

MassBimmer · 10-18-2009, 09:52 PM

So depressing, it's way too early to snow...what style 17's do you have?

jopa489 · 10-18-2009, 10:06 PM

17s are style 285. Not the worst looking OEM wheel in the world, I guess.

Edit: Obviously didn't have a chance to take the 162s off this weekend, heh.

Derek Zoolander · 10-19-2009, 08:51 AM

Winterized..

jopa489 · 10-19-2009, 03:31 PM

Hmm, the M6 reps don't look bad on the E90 LCI - better than I would have thought, actually. Are those the Miro reps?

Derek Zoolander · 10-19-2009, 03:45 PM

Not sure what brand. I bought them from Khai (blueaudi18t or something) in Boston.

I am such a hypocrite. I might be looking at a set of Linea Corse LMs this weekend.. LOL
I'm going to the World Series Thursday in NY and the dude is located on Long Island.
I hate LM reps, but they look so real for reps and the $3k price difference sounds entertaining. My LM rep hate comes from all the terrible replicas I've seen on VWs. I need to see these LCs in person.
We'll see.

Derek Zoolander · 10-26-2009, 04:52 PM

Just ordered KW V1s from my buddy John@20squared

jopa489 · 10-26-2009, 06:06 PM

Nice!! You going to put them right on, or wait until spring?

Derek Zoolander · 10-26-2009, 06:08 PM

I'll probably wait. But I also told myself I would wait til Spring to order them

Derek Zoolander · 10-27-2009, 09:50 PM

Gahh, I can't bring myself to buy LM replicas. Dude sent me the pictures. They look really clean except a 1.5" curb rash which is a huge turn-off (I would never, ever curb a wheel). I think I'll pass.

jopa489 · 10-27-2009, 10:01 PM

Is curb rash fixable on those type of wheels? Not sure if it would be worth it regardless though.

Derek Zoolander · 10-27-2009, 10:10 PM

It could be partially sanded out, but not fully.

Kev · 10-27-2009, 10:39 PM

I wish I were still in Boston, but seeing the snow that you guys are getting made me have a second thought. However, I still think it beats the hell out of boring Seattle. Hoping to make it back out East for my Cardiac Anesthesia fellowship. See you all then.

Derek Zoolander · 10-27-2009, 10:50 PM

Dude, I've heard Seattle is awesome! It kinda sucks up here in Nashua. Gotta go to Portsmouth, NH or Boston for any decent bars/nightlife.

TL · 10-28-2009, 12:44 PM

i have couple friends in seattle and they seem to like it but they tend to drive to Vancouver a lot....i guess Boston just grows on you and thanks to the colleges/univ around it makes it a more diverse city
