Ti Coupe with V710's

nate96 · 04-16-2009, 01:02 PM

I purchased some V710's from EAS. From my experience with them I would never recommend them to anyone.

Wow...I just read your post about the scratches and what not....sucks.

Wheels look good though.

Rick Hunter · 04-16-2009, 11:41 PM

Definitely hawt wheels

But you gotsa slam the mofo now.

Mikewarlover · 04-17-2009, 12:10 AM

i like one of the best wheel for the money

GP20 · 04-17-2009, 12:55 AM

I think the aero side skirts complement the coupe perfectly.

Just like on the roadster.

JerryLiu · 04-17-2009, 01:05 AM

Nice wheels and the aero side skirts. i think it will look perfect if you lower the car a bit ... btw, is it gunmetal?

I know it would look sweet. BUT I am experiencing some rubbing on the front with 235/35/19. So I do not know if lowering would be a good idea. Plus the car is my daily driver, and with the snow in the winter it would suck having her lowered. Maybe once she is not my daily driver.

Yes they are gunmetal

Mikewarlover · 04-17-2009, 12:44 PM

lower it on coil over and raise back up when winter hits

SAVAGE · 04-18-2009, 03:12 AM

Looks awesome

RicoSuave · 04-26-2009, 08:12 PM

Sorry about your troubles with EAS, but nonetheless your wheels look excellent on your car!

Coil overs are still a 0.8" drop at max height. I would love to get the functionality and achieve the look with them. But I am not sure if that would work here. I was scrapping the undercarriage a fair bit this winter, and feel a drop would make it so much worse.

These look great on your coupe! I'm thinking of going gunmetal sometime in the future, so your pictures are definitely a big help there. Can you do BWM centercaps on these wheels?

if you order from bavarianx, they come with bmw center caps. ask for bobby (tell him daniel with the z4 told you bout them). they dont advertise much for the z but they def carry our wheels.

She is now lowered on Eibachs

That was 3 years ago. But yeah, things changed and I am happy with the lowering. Looks way better, feels more planted and the ride has not suffered infact in some ways it has improved. BTW your car looks great. Next I am thinking of doing the roof black. Sorry, but it looks too good on your car not to consider doing...

dubsesd · 05-08-2012, 04:36 PM

i encourage you to do it. best decision i made on the cra so far, along with the aero skirts.

tekmoe · 05-08-2012, 05:03 PM

looks excellent, nate!

Yes, I think the skirt makes a big difference in the looks. Did you have the roof painted? I think I will just do a vinyl wrap just for something different right now.

dubsesd · 05-09-2012, 04:37 PM

i painted mine. vinyl wasnt as glossy and srcatched too easy. i had it wrapped for 4 days
