PIC Request - White MS3 + Bronze/Gold Wheels

[specvspeedfreak]

Nice!

i've got MB "Gear" for my winter wheels in 17's in the same color as that. They are not installed yet, so no pics of them on the car yet.

.... thanks,.. i saw those rims just a few days ago... I love them.. I tried to have my friend get them for his wrx but he is so stuck on getting OEM BBS wheels... I might have got those if they had it in 18's

Are you sure you want the added weight? There are prettier wheels for the same price that weigh much less.

if you find a wheel you want photoshopped i can do it so just post it up =]

Both photoshopped...

Dude gold wheels are sick, what color code did you use for these. Also did you do them yourself, I'm looking in to painting my stockers gold or black for my mica.

Our temps are dropping RAPIDLY from the 70's (unseasonably high) to the 30's-40's in the next 2 days and there's snow in the forcast on Saturday night. My MB Gears will be going on tomorrow or Saturday morning.

Oh man, I love the bronze on white. Now I think I want bronze painted stocks instead of black...

Hey Blue, I'm an IL native as well (Peoria area). I picked up the same wheels with some winter rubber last week. They go on tomorrow after work. What tires did you go with?

GODDAMNIT! Why did I bump this thread?! After seeing comebacks gold rims I was sure I was going to get it done. Even though I'm in Toronto, with all you guys now going to do it, **** that lol

Have pictures of those on the car?

Bronze looks sick on the white..that's definitely what I'm getting. I'm thinking about either the Volk TE37 or the Rota Tarmac 3, which one do you think will look better?

 

[Falango]

I'm assuming you have a CWP Speed3........I'd def go with TE37s, would look hot. I went with Bronze on Silver and it looked awesome. Painted the car, and I love the Bronze on White even more.

If looks are your only concern you may be better off going with the ones that cost 1/4 of the others price.

General Altimax tires

they go on tomorrow at lunchtime. I'll post pics up tomorrow, though the car will be dirty.

Here are my winter rims, fresh from the tire shop.

17" MB Gear, General Almax snow tires.

Yep, you've made up my mind. I'm getting those MB Gear's! Have any idea how heavy they are?? I'm still waiting ona quote Monday morning on a price.

 

[714ms3]

MB's website lists the 17's as 25 lbs per wheel, and the 18's at a whopping 29lbs per wheel. Not a bad winter choice though.

 

[Silver Ecstasy]

Yeah they're fairly heavy!

With the OEM wheels at 22lbs, and the Potenza's weighing 24lbs, you have a combined weight of 46lbs per corner.

With MB Gear's at 24.5 lbs and my choice of Dunlop SP Winter Sport M3's are about 25 lbs so over all i'm gaining 3lbs per corner. Not a big deal.

Not sure on the exact weight. Got your PM and PM'ed you back.

When I was loading/unloading both sets into the car, the stockers felt heavier for sure.
