Beautiful. Those wheels look better on the e34 than on the e39.![]()
Needed to get away, take a quick drive... luckily I thought to take the camera. I was up in the greensprings area of Hwy 66 in Southern Oregon, in the distance is the Siskiyou Mountains.
So I submit these pictures for your viewing pleasure, I hope you like them.

After all the little mechanical fixes, a chip, some custom exhaust work, paint work, tinting, and finally settling on some wheels... I'm very happy with my baby.
Now I think she needs a name... and I'll be working on a sig pic.

Thanks!Originally Posted by Torque
There's some great terrain out here, made all the more appealing with an E34 in the picture.![]()
Yes, I think those wheels do look better on E34's, but regardless they really only work on a dark car I think.

Late to the party - what kind of wheels are those, and what are the tires that fit on 'em? Think I need to add to my wish list!!!

I love the wheels too, the 16s fit the proportions of the car perfectly. My girl's name is Heidi by the way, because she's German, so that one's already taken![]()
Look an awful lot like these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BMW-E...19019530QQrdZ1Originally Posted by Beez540
Might be useful to have a spare? Since he's only selling 2 (and one is a little bent) I bet they go cheap.![]()

I actually got my set (all 4) on ebay (minus the center caps) for the starting bid of $99, shipping cost $125 though. Still a pretty good deal. There seems to be a lot of those wheels for sale, but I don't see too many people sportin' em. Like I said, they look really good on a dark car. Same wheels the black E39 in "Gone in 60 seconds" that Delroy Lindo drove was running.

Wow, that is a sweet deal. And even on my white car, I think I'd like 'em. Course, I won't be in the market until the tires I have now wear out. Maybe next summer with a little "spirited" driving.![]()
