different strokes for different folks.

my initial plan was to just repair the rash from the previous owner and sell these.
the idea was to get some apex wheels for the track, and another set of something nice for the streets.

but for nearly the same price i was able to get these fixed and powder coated, and have decided to keep these for the track since the 437m don't seem to really sell for much anyway.

I pretend my 437Ms are classic Fuchs . . .

Yours look terrific.

I think she looks better.

I've only had the M2 for a week, I love it but I want to get a Comp eventually. I came from a G05 X5 50i but this was more a fun toy until my G80 arrives. I don't mind the grill at all. I really want a LBB M2C which is likely what I'll get down the road once I finish my G80

Looks great man. I'm about to swap my chrome rear M2 badge for the black one as well. The plate frame and diffuser were done yesterday too.

Agreed, put them on the M3 as well, so ALL IN. The M3 went to 275/295s.

They are the new version, so fingers crossed.

Pic of the install, I had tire rack install them at my house. I will say it was a great experience. Both cars done while I washed the rims in between changing tires out.

Sideways pic of course.

Wow, I didn't even know that was an option! I see all the wheels are off/waiting...did they have some kind of trick jack or maybe a quickjack?

inside the sprinter van was a mount/dismount machine, a tire balancer and all the tools. The back of the van had the tires and put the old tires in the back when done and took them away.

He showed up early, after calling to see if that was ok, did all the work and was very professional, and made it home early on a Friday afternoon. Two cars at once worked out well for the installer, and me.

He had a jack and jackstands, just jacked up one side of the car, put the jack stand in and did one side at a time. In and out in a couple hours, I would of needed at lease 4 hours per car at a tire shop. That and the local shops didn't have tires on hand and or what I wanted...

I will do this again, very easy and I didn't need to sit in a building and wait. Very happy with the installations. I didn't need to do anything, but did give him snacks and was able to wash the wheels without me doing the labor of taking them off.
