New Shoes

dmanb2b · 04-03-2017, 12:03 AM

Spring fever got to me today. Car wash, rear brake pads and new to me set of 513M wheels. Specs are Front 18x9 ET29 (235/40) and Rear 18x10 ET 40 (275/35).

Quick test drive this evening tells me the wait was worth it...hope you like them. Probably need to drop the car now

Mind if I ask how much coin this cost?

If you prefer - PM me the cost, I REALLY like those wheels....

You finally put them on. Looks very nice, sharp on white.

Any rubbing ? What tires did you use

Not a big fan of white cars, but those wheels are perfect.

Thank you Yozh. I really appreciate you answering some questions I had on fitment and also recommending the wheel. No issues with a 275 width in the back!

18", so some meat on the tires for crappy northeast roads, lightweight, forged and wide with just about perfect offsets for an LCI e90.

No rubbing at all. I ended up going with MPSS. Originally was going to get the Indy 500 from Firestone, but the 235 tread width is much narrower than MPSS in same size, plus have seen mixed reviews on wet weather performance. Still a really solid and much cheaper alternative to MPSS, as well as those to that are lowered and looking for a more rounded tire for clearance.

Will PM you...I think they would look stunning on a red car.

Nice find and looks really good! I gotta say looks perfect aggressive stance without any use of any spacers! Just need about 1/2" drop and you will be good to go!

Looks awesome. Love the white color!
