Summer Rims on the TE

I finally got around to having my 18" TSW Carltons powder coated the other week. These used to be on my 400E that I rolled but they held up with only some gravel rash that I was able to sand out.

I went with a color close to that found on the bumpers and trim. I love how it looks and compliments the blue.

Whaddaya think?

Those wheels really compliment the beautiful color of your car, as well as the tint. Nice German Shepphard too!

That is my friend Hans, he is about 6 years old now and is one of the most intelligent dogs I have met. Gotta keep the German theme going, they know how to do it right!

When I got my wagon I decided to name him Frans. I have never named my cars before, but It seemed appropriate since my dog Hans loves when I fold all of the seats down and he can sit with his head between the two front seats, occassionally sticking his head out the sunroof. Hans Und Frans, yeah it's dorky, but hey.

I do like these wheels, I have actually had more than one person in a BMW give me compliments! I said thank you, then felt sorry for the guy, at least it is german .

I paid around $80 a wheel to have them sand blasted and powdercoated FYI, I don't know if that is a good price or what, but it is what I paid and I was very happy with the results.

WAGONS HO!
