My Once In A Lifetime Projek - E32 Alpina Wannabe

[Eggie86]

Anyways, updates for the weekend.

Finally collected my rims this morning, super happy! Couldn't even sleep well in eager anticipation.

Not really disappointed despite finding out they weren't staggered, and were in 16"s.

My fault for being too eager to snap up a set that I forgotten to double check the specs with the seller.

But, nevertheless, I finally have a set to use!

Waiting at tyre shop.

Being hoisted.

Goodbye E60 rims.

Look, no wheels!

Will update more later once I collect my ride. :love:

Temporary console myself by listening to the exhaust note from this car. :biggrin:

Hey guys,

I've contacted the seller.

It's my mistake for not double-checking the pics seller sent earlier. One of the pics actually showed actual size of rims - 7J x 16. In my haste to get the rims, I DIDN'T CONFIRM rims specs with seller, and instead relied on goodwill that the seller will not pull out of the deal. I did not ask seller for rims specs although I have not seen the actual advert he posted on the SG forums.

My mistake again guys.

I still am happy with the rims and have shod them already.

Thanks for your concern bros.

Anyways, here are the pics of the rims. I know they're not as nice as Softlines, but heck, they're still Alpinas.

Really matches the decals now too if I might add.

Delighted. :love:

Nice bro. Take some far shots le. Which michellin tires are those bro?

 

[bmw7833]

Bro, the seller advertised the rims in 17" x 8.5J and 9.5J.

Anyway, u decided to rest the case?

eggie, you should ask for reimbursent for part of the sale... totally a misleading sale.

Michelin Premacy LC if not mistaken. Got them for about RM 700 each if not mistaken.
