Nextel's Imola Sedan ZHP thread (another imola sedan?)

[nextelbuddy]

i've decided i want the car to look more OEM so i've decided to depart from the Apex wheels. Yes i know i just got them a few months ago. they were killer wheels, super light and got tons of compliments however they just made the car look too aftermarket and that's not what I want. despite the miles being high, i would love this car to be regarded as a more oem type car given the fact that it has virtually every other oem part/accessory i could find.

i tried style 67 18 inch wheels and they were ok... but still i didn't like the fitment. the fronts were too sunken in and required 15mm spacer to look flush but then the rears needed a 5mm spacer and the rear fender couldn't handle that. so i ditched those and picked up a set of style 219m in gunmetal.

they definitely wont look as "nice" as the bronze Arc 8s but they will certainly fit the theme of the car much better I feel.

i hope to swap tires onto them this weekend but i wanted to see how the rears looked so i threw them on quickly.

the plan is to reuse my tires which are 245/35 rear and 215/35 front.

the apex were 18x10 et25 rear and the 219 are 18x9.5 et23 so it should still fit the same in the rear like the apexs did. the fronts should be nice and flush sitting at 18x8.5 et29 (apex fronts were 18x9 et30)

I think those will look nice. They might be a little much for the theme you’re going for, but of the newer options from BMW I friggin’ love me some Style 513Ms.

Those look really nice, Shawn.

[ZHPizza]

Good fit for the car since they're like an updated version of the 135's

[holyc0w]

That looks really good. I liked the black wheels as well.

edit: the second ones, though they were all good
