so then i dropped by neway wheel repairs in heideburg, unbelievable, they fixed it!

it was done within the day and for only $80 !! ive been driving with it on for about a week now and its perfect. really recommend them

Sweet! Thanks for that! My Mum drives a 2006 2G E65 7 Series and she's scraped her 20" rims... need to get them repaired!

Hi Guys

Just found this site so I thought I would sign up.

Im from Melbourne.

I've got a 2009 525i M-Sport (in ruby black) which I bought new 6 months ago. Im thinking about doing some performance mods. Still only thinking at this stage, and not much of an idea where to start.

Here are some pics. I've had the windows tinted dark since then, thats pretty much all that has been done so far.
