Pimp my wagon

BBS wheels on the wagon.

I don't hate it.

I don't know what the stock wheels looked like, but I'm sure this is better.

They were tolerable, but 16" and narrow (205 tires). The e46 wheels fit so I put these on with 225 Continental DW's just for kicks. It's quite a bit better.

I mean the suspension is too soft and the brakes suck. But at least the tires work.

Me three, I like them. Also light. I assume that's the 3-season set.

It's the BBS RK's. Light and cheap. I bought it from a Bimmerfest member like 12 years ago. Elwood I think?

Speaking of BBS RK's, I finally found the slow leak in my right rear "tire"
