Modulare B18 Wheels

I needed another set of wheels for the front since the new brakes would require at least a 19" wheel. I contacted HRE, Vorsteiner, and others and none of them make a 19 x 9.5" front and 19 x 12" that would fit the new larger front brakes. I spoke to a number of wheel experts and one of them pointed me towards Modulare Wheels. I liked the B18 series so I ordered them with the same color combo as the BS stock OEM wheels. I got them installed and I didn't care for the look.

I took them off and had them stripped and then gloss black powder coated. I think they look much better now.

That is just a sick looking car. I actually like the wheels in silver as well as the black. Great looking car though!

Dad = Keith on this board. You may want to try a different 'handle' here, just a friendly suggestion.

Yes, saw that after the fact. I have been "Dadz" for many years on many Forums so I guess it will be, kind of like having two Matt's.

Interestingly enough Dadz63 lives about 30 miles north of me.

Love the B18s, have a set in Matte Titanium Brushed waiting in the garage. I think the gloss black looks much better given your car color.

While the black wheels look good, I'm bothered by the left front tire that seems to be installed backward...

I'm really surprised it took someone this long to catch that. I put them on in a hurry to beat a rain storm coming and later that evening realized they were backwards and they've been corrected. Good catch.
