Wink RAD BNZ temporary wheels - winter setup | some PICS

My temporary wheels until Spring time when my new wheels arrive.

(Sorry for the low quality iPhone pics)











These are Varrstoen wheels btw, BBS doesn't make wheels for this car in 20" size, only 19s.
Will put MB caps as soon as I find the correct size.

I got new size for the front wheels, 20x9 (left) compared to the old 20x10 (right) - both use the same 255/30/20 tires:



All four wheels are tucked-in with no rubbing
