The wheels look good, much less of a stark contrast than I initially thought. Nice.

Thanks guys

I was a bit apprehensive doing it at first given all the negative feed back my template got but I'm chuffed I did it as I really like how they now look

I loved the spring loaded boot on my mercedes when I had it.

I once got my ex- to have a close look at my polishing & wax job on the top surface of my bootlid, and when she brought her face close to it, I used the key fob to open the spring-loaded boot and it hit her in the face  :)) :)) :))

It was comedy gold  :)) :))

Like the spring mod. Been looking at it for the 3er too.

I actually like the rims as the colour coded centres break up the black.

If someone can figure out the correct spring dimensions, load, etc.  it will only cost a couple if brought from here...

Or even cheaper, by searching for "Die Spring" in EBay.

Therefore, can someone measure there springs for me.

Thankyou, I understood that the original rams were NOT splittable.
