Default New Wheels

Finally got my BBS Sport Classics mounted. Had them refinished first. Sure do like the new look. Now, I'll have to sell the Sport Designs.

Yes and no. Today was beautiful. I'm sitting on my deck with my iPad right now by the fire pit, and there's still snow on the ground in my backyard. It's supposed to be sunny and 66 degrees tomorrow. It's supposed to be 19 degrees and snowy on Wednesday.

I haven't put my summer tires on yet...

Those are great wheels. Look great clean, but a pain to keep that way. Ask me how I know

Here in southern Maine, I was able to put on the summer wheels and tires last week. What an improvement to switch out the winter sneakers Dennis.

I'm looking forward to it. I typically try to make the switch around May 15th. Even this late, I sometimes get caught in a June snow storm.

These wheels fit your car very nice. You should have no trouble selling your Sport Designs, they seem to be in demand. I sold a set about 18 months ago, for $1500 in modest condition Good luck with the sale
