So, I just got these after pining for them for five years.

Here they are, sitting in the box...

And that box brings me to my question / favor.

Three of my fenders have a fairly aggressive roll. One of my fenders isn’t rolled very much at all. Go figure. Wasn’t me, obviously, but now is something I need to rectify for these babies to fit.

I have a friend with a roller, but he is going to Road Atlanta for a track weekend and we can’t do this until next weekend.

So I thought I’d ask here on Oppo if anyone is in Austin and has a roller I could borrow or rent for a couple bucks (or couple beers).

I can’t pay too much - waiting two weeks won’t kill me, but I’m not exactly happily waiting, either.

So, anyone out there happen to live here and have a fender roller?

I’m nowhere near Austin, but I love apex wheels. Got a set of 18x10’s just sitting in my house now. What car are these going on?

These Style 68 are about the lightest 17” wheels BMW makes, and I’ve always quite liked them, but these Apex wheels are still 5-6 pounds lighter (each) and I can rotate them. And, you know, they’re completely gorgeous.

Beautiful car, the arc-8’s will make it look even better. The drop in unsprung weight was pretty noticeable IMO when I switched the stock 17’s on my E90 for a squared set of 17x8.5 arc-8’s (just test fitting).

I bought the 18x10’s used for a great price. Honestly they are overkill for my type of driving so I’m gonna try to trade them for a set of 17x9’s.
