Picked these 80's BMW 3-series wheels up on craigslist recently (5 for $120) and have been cleaning, sanding, and painting them up for the past few weeks. There are going to be my teeny tiny 14-inch lightweightish track wheels. Fern green ftw!

 

Saweet!

 

Sweet deal! Good looking wheels.

 

are you putting them on your fit? themz done gone be small!

 

Oooh, looky - another Austinite!

Do you run at Spokes events? Have you ever been to Driveway Austin?

I've only spectated - well, not entirely true... I got to ride along twice at Spokes events, once in Daniel Pedroza's Miata and once in another guy's Mustang GT.

What color is your Fit, and is it a GD or a GE?

Love the crazy color, btw.

 

Thanks guys and gals for the props! They will be small indeed, but after seeing some pics of member fitdeez with his 14s on, I figured what the heck.

!bungle: I've never been to a spokes event or Driveway Austin (never heard of that, googling it now), but I would be very interested in checking either one out in the future. Lately I have begun attending the crazy gymkhana races at Harris Hill in San Marcos and I'm freaking hooked. I'm going to sign up for one of the high-performance driving events happening in september which should give me the credentials to get out on open track days and have fun practicing. I'm not really competitive, I just like driving fast! I have a white 2009 GE with eibach sportlines, a progress rear sway bar and black steel wheels. How about you? I'll keep my eyes peeled, although there seems to be more fits in austin than just about anywhere else I've ever driven through recently.

The rustoleum fern green started to get kinda orangepeelish over the past day (turning wrinkly two days after being perfectly shiny), so I may have put the spray on two thick or something. Oh well, they were ugly as is, now they'll just be even uglier.
