18" BMW Style 189 Wheels

I just wanted to share with everone how these look on the car. I've been searching for stock wheels forever and couldnt find any at a decent price. I found these for 350 and got rid of my 20s. I had to use 9mm spacers to make them fit and they barely miss the front caliper by the width of a razor blade. They dont look great but they dont look horrible either (mediocre). It would definitely look better with a drop. These are just cell phone pics, sorry!

I never had stock wheels for this car. It came with the 20s. I think I may be able to get my hands on some caps from a 99-03 TL. I'll try that when I get off work.

Not bad at all, I'm sure they would look allot better with the center caps.

Looks pretty similar to the stock wheels which isn't a bad thing.

No vibrations. I take it up beyond 100 with no issues at all.
