SonicVanMan's BMW 120d from the start

Bit of a update, i fitted some EBC Ultimax front discs yesterday, i had some Ferodo DS2500 pads to but i had ordered the wrong ones & the brake lines & Motul RBF 600 brake fluid will go on next week.

& today someone on the bmw forum advertise the best wheels you can get for the 1series Imo & he only lives down the road & at a good price, very rare alloys.

BMW BBS Motorsport wheels, fronts 18x 7.5 rears 18x 8.5



They wont be going on for a couple of weeks as i need to sort tyres out.

Wheels look sweet can't wait to see them on

A little up date, my new wheels are ready for rubber, hoping to get them on for Modified National.

They are BMW Motorsport 216 style BBS alloys (1 series spec) Fronts 18x7.5 Rears 18x8.5, pretty rare alloys mainly found on the 130i LE models, but I managed to get a second hand set & I've had them powder coated in Gloss black with white decals, i dont think you will find another set like this so fingers cross are unique.

I think i'll be wrapping them with either Goodyear Eagle F1s again or Michelin PS3s in 18/40/225 & 18/35/255 for add grip.

They look awesome

They looks really good,always liked these in silver but look 100x better in gloss black.

Cheers, ye im more then happy with how they turned out, gloss black really suit the style & i think takes them to the next level.

love the job you done the wheels mate

Where did you get them powdercoated again?

Wheels UK on the Bayton Rd in Cov, they cost £60 a wheel so a bit more than most places but its a top job & im happy to pay a little bit more to make sure its right.
