New Wheels for the Coupe

Post by Richardenigma »

Finally managed to get my set of BBS RC041s refurbished and onto the Coupe (I also had the brake calipers painted red as a sheer indulgence)...I think they look great but suspect I'm biased...anyway wanted to share so hope you enjoy!

They look great! 8-)

Go well with the rest of the white and black combo on the car, have you thought about getting a black nose grill for the bonnet to match?

Would look even better also if it was lowered a little :D

I'm not a big fan of coloured wheels, preferring plain alloys.

But those wheels look fantastic on that car!

I, also, normally prefer plain alloys, but for the sheer presence & look, those wheels are excellent. I reserve judgment on the calipers as I just hate the colour red!

Sorry not a fan at all. A white coupe, albeit not an M, is very rare and could look really good but that styling is definitely not for me - sorry!

Lowering is absolutely on the agenda...

The red on the calipers is meant to be more subtle hence being slightly darker but its definitely a personal choice...

...and I get it that we all have a different view which I welcome and value in equal measure...

...now what to do with my Roadster (the coupe is my wife's)? 8-)

I love cars that are different from the norm. Your white coupe looks great but I think as said if it was lowered it would look Even better..

As for what to do with your M... LEAVE IT ALONE!!! It looks amazing white with the standard black wheels.. :!: I'm a big fan of your M..

Any chance of some more close up pics of it?? :D
