Got my M-Systems back from the refinisher...

I'm only $1300 into this project and don't even have tires!

But they look great. They're in Atlanta and in in Indiana, but they're staying tight. I love the look.

The lips are machine-finished and clearcoated. Debating about getting centercaps or not. ****, I can't even afford tires so...

Looks great man, glad you didn't go with the polished lip... machined looks so much better. I vote no center caps, just get some t star covers and wear them when it suits your mood

rock em the way they are, it will look amazing.

they look really really nice.

throwing stars or the turbines? look good man. how much?

Appreciate the positive feedback guys.

I'm glad I did machine-finish instead of polished...I was nervous about it but like it now.

Bought the Turbines needing refinishing for $465, spent $600 on the refinishing (by a pro).

About the covers, I have some mediocre turbine covers but won't run them. I want throwing stars, so if anyone has some to donate I'll be glad to accept. :)

I think I'm going to run them naked with no centercaps.

turbines are different for a change. cant wait to see the final product. i want 17s for my 5 but those wheels used seem hard to come by.

They are...I just had to ask local E34 M5 owners if they had an extra set...got lucky.

I like em because they're light and strong. Look good too.
