Pics of my new Lorinsers LM5
Im getting my HREs re-polished and coated so I put on some brand new Lorinsers and can you believe they cost $1300 each for the fronts and $1400 each for the rears. I didnt pay that much cause the guys had them in stock but they are quite expensive. I actually like my HREs more but tell me what you think.

I like the HREs better also but I got these at a steal of a price and with the Euro going up the price has sky rocketed. For all you guys with Lorinser stuff hold on to it and take care of it cause there is never a price reduction even if the Euro comes back down.. Its gonna get to a point were Lorinser will be very exclusive I heard they even only have two main warehouses were they use to have three. Im gonna hold on to both wheels for now and see were it goes specially since I saw the 6 series and the salesman had a clk and loved mine

I hate the back so much
