Hello everyone, new here! I just got some 18in Privat Bremsen-S wheels.

My uncle actually picked them out for me cause he said this is the new style that is out...black lip instead of chrome. I've had them for a day and im not sure how I feel about them. From a distance they look smaller then they actually are, and they look sick from up close. Privat also had one without the black lip...

I dunno...let me know what you guys think and be honest lol.

look a little small....
nice car!

yeah it definitely looks small... i'm not a fan of the black lip, i think chrome would look better... and a drop would make it look a lot better! i think it'll be best if you used your stockers instead......

sorry bro but those are butt ugly.

man, sorry. dont care for the black. I like the polished lip better.

Cali-Dude · 11-30-2010, 11:39 AM

Thanks for the honesty guys, most appreciated! Ya I didnt know if I was going to like it when I saw them...and I really dont. Im going to see about getting the regular ones if I can. It sucks cause Privat only makes these in an 18 or 20, and 20 would probably be to low profile. And I really like the style, I had a friend who had Maya STM's on her BMW and it looked awesome!

Cali-Dude · 11-30-2010, 12:03 PM

Anybody else have any suggestions!? Does anyone like the regular Bremsen's with the polished lip?

I think other than the fact that they are 18s they look even smaller because of the black lip. Your eyes only focuses on the polished part of the wheel because the black lip blends in with the tires.
