My Ride: 2004 545i Silver Gray, Sport Package, Nav, Logic 7, 20 inch Asanti's
Talking

Well I finally got my wheels put on today after waiting for two months! They look unbelievable!!! 20X9 front with 245/35/20 tires and 20X10 rear with 285/30/20 Michelin PS2's. I did have to get them re-balanced due to the fact that the installer put the wieghts on the very inside lip. I had them re-done and put in the middle of the wheel. Now that the balancing is right, I do have a slight rub. I need to know if anyone in So Cal, San Diego area preferrably knows a trustworthy place to get my fenders rolled?????????????? Any input is appreciated!!!

Eastwood.com sells a tire rolling device that you can use yourself.

delatorre,

I highly recomend Shoreline Motoring in HB.

www.shorelinemotoring.com

Their customer service is top notch and their shop and showroom is very clean and professional. They specialize in BMW aftermarket modifications and will do the fender rolling correctly. If you call talk to paul the owner he's very helpful and will take care of your ride!

Good luck!

P.S. I'm not affiliated with Shoreline, just a satisfied customer and willing to post a prop to good service.

I got the wheel rings put on Saturday. It helped alot, no more wobbling. I am going to go to group 5 in San Diego for the fender rolling. As far as the pics go, look in the members gallery under delatorre41.
