I think someone mistook a pack of rubbers for tires...
Do you mean pencil erasers?

I'm just messing with you guys on being the advisor of course......

Then again, if I saw a hideous looking car rolling down the street and the customer said he got the work done at Sleek Motoring...I'd stay the hell from that place. LOL!!!

J/K



I guess I just keep my eyes open for modded cars. Funny thing is I've hardly seen any modded 7 series until recently and I saw that car like 3 times in the last month or so. I think the first white one i asked you about is probably the same guy and he probably just recently got his roof painted black.

Here is one that is dumped on 24" staggered. Does this change anybodys opinion on 24s on a 7 series?

Vellano VSK's
Brushed finish
24 x 9 in the front and 24 x 10 in the rear.
Beautiful car, beautiful wheels, but they just dont look right together. If they were 20", would be a great match..

Friends shouldn't let friends mod irresponsibly, know when to say when.

Black 7 with 24s does look better, but what rubbers is he running with them?
