New tires fixed the pulling issue too. I was almost ready to blame my alignment guy lol.

Was that pic taken in Henderson? I used to live there.

Yup. Just north of Sunset in the Costco parking lot.

Yup. Give my bank account a few months to recover lol. This car is a money pit. Not in a terrible way, just that the last owner could not afford to keep an E34 properly maintained, so I have had/will have to take care of some deferred maintenance before buying springs. I'm not complaining mind you. It's a genuine 5 spd 535, 127k miles, that I got for $900.

get those off tirerack? i was just lookin at those today

[garethashenden]

I like the polished bottle caps

[strad]

Yeah they came off tire rack. Tires are Yokohama W4S 235/45/17.

And the bottlecaps are not polished. They are chrome plated, and the chrome plating was starting to come off in places. But the real reason I bought the wheels now was because the tires were worn out. And I did want bigger and wider :)

Nice man, I have a few years left on my tires so I can't justify buying new wheels yet, but I can't wait.

[mlambert831]

why would you replace the blangin chrome bottlecaps with those horribly ugly piles.

[strad]

:lol My wife was wondering that actually. Actually she was wishing I'd gotten the black version of those wheels, with the machined lip. I was torn, but in the end I didn't think it'd look right.
