Are 21's too big? Another Austin Yellow M4 goes under the knife at Velos Designwerks

[carlos@velosdesignwerks]

Hello members,

Sometimes our clients come to us with their own ideas and our job is to make it happen. This F82 is a perfect example. Engineers in Munich are probably a bit confused but we think we made it work. Although most enthusiasts distance themselves from 21's, this customer was looking for something different.

Here is a closer look into the modifications

-Brushed w/ Triple Dark Tinted Gloss Clear
Velos D. Personal Programmer

M Performance Front Lip & Side Skirts
M Performance Mirror Covers

IND Color Matched Front Reflectors
Eisenmann Exhaust
Eisenmann Down Pipes

Enjoy the photos and let us know what you think.

If you bought the M4 as a cruiser, sure throw some 21's on there. Not my cup of tea though.

[alexc93]

bigger is not always better

[Squddie]

Are those tires painted onto the rim?

[Powerbeast]

I would usually say 21's are way too big but you guys pulled it together very well.

[NJCRUSH]

They don't look too big - looks great actually.

Looks good. Love those wheels. What's the weight of them?

[Carl L]

Too big.

[lpphreakx06]

Love the wheels but what is the purpose of have a 2 piece wheel with hidden hardware? Is it easier to produce than a 1 piece wheel? is it lighter?

[Blindside_137]

They look huge but not bad!

Nice car

[VDBimmer]

Allows for deeper concavity and more size options. Usually depends on the customers taste but he preferred the clean look of hidden hardware. Weight is typically 3-4 lbs heavier than a mono version.

Thanks sir!

roughly 27-28 lbs for the two piece. For comparison a 20" mono block weighs 22.5-23.5 lbs.

I would no choose them for my car mainly because I would not be able to drive it safely around Boston roads.
Nevertheless, I like them on your car. Thanks for sharing some great looking pix, and car of course.
