Default My black 250 w F-Sport rims - New SLR pics ;)

Hi fellas, first thread for me;

just installed my F Sport rims yesterday. I was real sceptic as alot of others when I just saw the rims, but the grew on me. I figured I would give em a try - and now I simply love them!

I think they look great on a black car.

The offset is a litte more aggressive than the OEM's and the profile and lip especially in the rear makes the car look like a muscle car!

Sorry for the crappy iphone pics, I'll bring out the SLR when the weather gets nicer.

Lars.

those actually look pretty good! I've been unsure about them in the pics I've seen, but I think they look nice on a black IS

I see your in Norway, Did you order the rims from sewell? Because i thought the F-sport line was a US thing only?

But drop it like its hot, and your ride will look even better!

thanks guys, yeah they look even better in person - everyone that didnt like them in the initial pics that came out should see them live for sure!

Yeah sewell has always been real helpful and ships internationally. I had my parts a short week after I ordered.

If the F Sport line is supposed to be US -only - thats even better for me then!

im keeping the suspension stock on this one as im importing a 350 from the states this summer, but yes it does need to come down an inch or two - especially in the front!

Might see some SLR pics tomorrow!

HMmmm it might make me re-think my initial impressions of the F-sport rims, especially on my BSP.
