323F @ Fondmetal/Radius R2 205/40R17

after an odysee i got them finally installed today (yes, wheelhouse borders had to be crimped).
the lug nuts were ordered from italy (3 weeks to arrive!), tuev inspector made mistake with certification etc.. i don't want to bore you with the details, just 2 of them:

- my car now sits about 3cm higher(!) than with my winter ríms (which sucks)
- all in all installation material+costs = 290€ ...... i feel no happiness today. (monkey)

Red face

i got those rims from ebay about 2y ago... i saw that the guy just started his auction and wrote him a mail that i would quickly need a birthday present for my father and that i couldn't wait as long as the auction lasted.. so he sold them to me for like 200€

they're in the official accessory brochure down here... fondmetal/radius r2 .. dealer sells them for like 220€/pc
honestly, those 205/40/17 rims give me one hell of a hard ride, that's the only disadvantage i see (ok,besides the costs )
