Just got these in today. 18x8 MSR 045 in Hyper Grey. Wrapped them with some 205/40r18 rubber.

 

Work Meisters. 17x8 and 17x9 both et 30.

 

The pedobear sticker made me

 

Very well played 07BPB

 

My browser won't allow me to see those pictures but I went to your gallery and if you are showing the chrome 5 spokes, I have to say that I like them a lot, I tried to find 17" chrome wheels with a lip back on 05 and didn't find anything, I had bought ARE Chrome 5 spokes that were only 7" wide with no lip at all and eventually bought the Hamman 8" with a nice lip but they didn't have them in chrome.
If I was to buy today, I would get the same as what you have, I like that look, I'm one of those who still loves chrome wheels with a deep lip and have to admit, I hate all black wheels because we use black steelies here for our extremely long winters and I have to look at black wheels for months, so chrome means "Finally, summer is here!!!"
Where did you get those from, I would like to check them out.

 

Pic in his gallery is different from what he posted. Search Work Meister's on google for a pic of what they look like.

 

Thanks, yep, that would be my wheel in Bright Buff Finish, now I wish I could see his pics, the one on Work Meister's site on the MINI are orange, I'd like to see the 9" in Bright buff.
I also have a Smart car with Brabus wheels and have to say the red Smart on Work Meister's site with those wheels looks really sharp, I have a black one and again the Bright Buff would look good on that one too.

 

Very nice and very clean car.

 

07BPB - yep, cool wheels...& very nice stance

I was running 18x7.5 RS Limited with 215/35-18. They were just too low profile for the city roads I drive and were bent to hell. The wheels were right at 20 lbs each.



When the tires wore out ended up with 17x7.5 45ET Rota RB (Gunmetal) with Continental DW 215/45-17. The ride is so much better and they handle great. The Rotas are 18 lbs each.



The car has H&R springs but I don't know the exact drop. I get some small rubbing over extreme bumps when the car has a couple people and some stuff in the hatch.

thanks!

 

WOW ..... You really kicked it up a notch (or two)...

 

 

A BMW at my office lot has 2 pedobear sticker outlines on it...not really something I'd want to have on my car...but to each their own.

 

The chrome 5 spokes in those photos are the old wheels I had on. They are 18 x 7.5 or 8 I believe. Chrome was a PITA as those were cheaper wheels and any brake dust had to be removed asap. The bright buff finish you mentioned isn't chrome but a very good polish, it adds roughly 25% of the cost per wheel to get it done.

I choose the meisters because they look fantastic IMO, and have a lot of lip. Roughly 3 inches or so of lip for my rears. If you are having trouble seeing photos try this link: M/U

I got them from an Australian distributor JDM Concept but it was a 10 week wait, plus shipping to the USA would be a killer in terms of cost.

 

^ what tires and sizes did you go with?

 

205/40 fronts and 215/40 rears. Toyo T1-Rs.

 

Nice wheels
