My AC Schnitzer 22s

Post by Slats » Mon Apr 04, 2011 11:18 pm

Hi guys,
Just thought I would share some pics of my 22 inch type 2 ACS wheels, I bought them off eBay in a pretty sorry state, did a home rattle can Refurb on them and have been waiting till spring to get them on, plan is too run them this summer then get them done properly for next year, now do I sell my 20 inch 168's and get dedicated winter set up or not? Hmmm decisions....ImageImageImage

Thanks for the kind comments guys,
I have wanted these wheels since i had my first x5 3 years ago but could never justify (nor afford!) the cost at the time,I'm aware I'm not the only one rolling with these but I reckon I may have payed less than most for them as I know how much these are to replace, and even used they are top money, I only managed this due to the way I put them together over a long period, as funds allowed, and two of the rims had to be pro repaired which when done properly is not cheap either but I know they are as good as new now and all said and done a bit of a bargain which is rare for me and cars as they normally end up costing me a fortune one way or another! I'm already plotting a sort of Dakar support theme with black 17s/18s with all terrains on and snowboard rack on top for winter! The wife will not be happy! I think I need to sell something! is there still a market for the style 168 20s? as I think I might be willing to let mine go now as I've been surprised how well the car rides on 22s.
