New alloys on my car (pics)

A friend of mine recently bought an E46 316Ti on finance :(

What did he do after he'd bought it? Bought some replica wheels (those on the 5 series in the above pics) :(

What tyres did he get put on there? Sodding Nankang NS-2 :(

Hahaha i have those. When i bought my alloys i simply didn't have enough money for 4 good tyres. I mean, i find the car still handles well with those pieces of crap on, so when i get some Eagles in the summer, i'm hoping for more!

On the plus side, they make roundabouts in the wet very interesting!

I had them on the front for a bit, but now they're fitted at the back.

On the way home from work on Saturday night, I went to a local industrial estate to try a bit of wet braking... just to see how good these Vredesteins are.

Going around quite a small roundabout at about 40mph (the Vred's are fantastic in the wet!) the back end kicks out.

I spent the next 5 minutes playing with lift-off oversteer.

The Nankang's are ***** for grip, but awesome fun in the wet :D
