I traded in my P40's for some new ones in charcoal with polished face:

Looks more dramatic in the flesh. I also might get some better matching (more polished silver) wheel centres.

well done Alex!! I am a sucker for p40s as well.
Yes the center caps will be a bit hard to match. Perhaps factory ones from the turbo have a bit of a polish on them. I think yours are being with gold crests are not the same color as the turbo wheels. If I am not mistaken those only come with the black outline crests.
Charcoal inners are a great idea for break dust... but you dont have any!!
Enjoy.

cool. I love the look of that car
how is the ride, especially over bumps and wavy pavement, with springs alone?
I am kind of amazed that so many people run springs only on this car. I have done that on an old m3 and it was HORRIBLE
thanks for any insight

Alex, The wheels and the car really look nice. Can you please tell us the specs: OD, width, offset/backspace/any spacers? And the tire size...I am going to get the same style wheels...Is your car lowered?
I am glad that Bluecrab noticed this thread!
