Hey Chico those are sex! And holy airbags that car is low.Originally Posted by Chico

But bear with me here - you know I can't resist playing devil's advocate. Are those rims different enough from your current wheels to keep you satisfied for long? Here's my train of thought. I had a friend with a '97 black on black 540 and when it came time for a new car in '03 he was looking at the '03 black on black 540. So I told him:
"Look. If, and I do mean if, you were going to screw around on your wife.....don't bang her twin sister. It'll be great to get some strange the first couple of times but the high degree of similarity means that newness will wear off that much quicker. If your wife is a brunette go get a blond or a redhead."
Well, buddy tells me all about how the car is completely redesigned from the last one yada yada yada. Buys the 540. 5,6 months later I get the call:
"I want something different. What do you think of the E55?"
So in short: Those rims are sexy enough....but are they different enough?
Sorry to **** with your head Chico.

Anyway, the rims are similar to my Milanos but it is no accident. I didn't wanna lose the look so I searched for a rim with wide spokes.
The major differences are: the new ones are 2 pc, lighter in weight, bigger lips (front and rear), staggered 20x9.5 in the rear and the spokes sit flatter so it will have the visual impact of a deeper rim.
So there!!
You did it once but not again.

I call shotgun on first refusal when Chico sells his new rims!
J/K! They are very sexy and they have more lip than Palmela Anderson after a day at the plastic suregeon (hey , it just occured to me. Do you think she's had THOSE lips puffed up too? She's done everywhere else).
Sweet,sweet rims. Now just don't go on and on about how different the lighter wheels feel or you'll be giving away a vital secret us heavier wheel guys are trying to keep. Congrats!

I hate to say it but when you post to this kind of thread you ARE inviting comments and that's fair game. I doubt you would have had the same response if he drooled on them (which deep down inside we all want. some admit it , some don't). Gotta take the bad with the good.Originally Posted by bebe70024

I love and hate these threads at the same time. So many sweet rides, but the urge to buy 19" rims and drop my car an inch and a half is too strong!

Personally, I love my car and could care less what people think.. But if I ask someone what do they think of my wheels then I would respect everyones opinions, but I was joking around when I said I should win a prize NOT ASKING WHAT PRIZE PEOPLE THINK I SHOULD GET especially if there is something you dislike about my car... If I didnt ask for your opinion dont share it with me...Originally Posted by big daddy d
