S Line Avant - Now with 19'' LM reps

[dubdemand]

Well after picking the new wheels up a few weeks ago and waiting another week for the spigot rings I have finally managed to mount our new rims today!

Really pleased with it now but will be happier still once I fit the B5 spring plates on the front which should help reduce the arch gap slightly... These rims had been advertised as ET35 but once I got them home I soon realised they were ET45! Not a massive issue but I will be looking at spacers in a few months once finances have recovered from christmas!

Anyways, thanks to everyone for their help and advice! Here are the pics - bit dirty, hope you like!

That looks fantastic mate glad you decided to fit them!
If you dont mind me asking how much and where from ?

Cheers guys, they were £530 second hand from a guy on ebay! He said he's only had them for 2 weeks then had a change of plans so put them up for sale. they really are in very good condition indeed so I have no reason to doubt their age!

Think a similar set would have cost close to £760 new so it's a cracking result!

Looks the biz!

Have you lowered your car at all?

 

[dubdemand]

Thanks matey! Not lowered yet and probably won't go much lower for the time being although i am planning to fit B5 spring plates to drop the front slightly which should help the arch gaps a bit for now!

I can recommend H&R sport springs just had them fitted to my avant and it looks awsome yours would look so good with H&Rs and those wheels. Ride is actually better than standard and they are not silly low. Got them of ebay for 108 inc del from Germany if I were you this is the route I would go rather than B5 lowering caps as they will only lower the front (10mm I think ) and unless your handy with spanners and can fit them yourself will still be pricey to have fitted as the front springs need to come out.
