Ha Ha. If I was heading towards coatbridge then I was running late for a party so probably was to focused on getting there :D If the car was heading towards Baillieston it was My mum bringing my car back, but then again, she normally waves to people and then tells me that "this type of car waved to me today... do you know them :D" I managed to give my car a coat of Zymol, but im the same, need to wait on the weather breaking to get it done right |

Hi Allan, Past yours on hogmanay just at Baillieston Main St (Video Shop-ish) gave a beep on passing Not had the time to really get on top of the car yet, gave it a quicky with Klasse AIO yesterday - soon as it get's a bit milder I will give it the full bhunna! Miss the old taxi-ing at times, miss the flange, now just a boring yorkie eating HGV driver with a 530i which covers 6 miles a day

The new 19" replicas are pretty nice I think.
 Like the one above. |

Should have followed this up earlier, but old age you see........ Got the rep Parallels from DP Motorsport (went down personally), can't fault the service or indeed the deal! Highly recomended from me. Very high quality, indent for M badge etc. Shameless piccy - Now all I need is new front fogs at a less "bend over sir" sort of price the dealers charge (bl00dy Ebay, keep getting outbid!!)

Bought a set of wheels and tyres from DP Motorsport in June 2006. They sent the wrong wheel nuts, took three weeks to send the correct ones after many, many phone calls,to chase them. The tyres were defective and failed after 6000 miles in 15 months. DP refused to take them back as they only provide 1 years warranty and will not help any further with contacting the manufacturer. The wheels are great, the service very, very poor |

Hi Charlie, I'd be interested in your M sport wheels and tyres. I'm in Aberdeen so could maybe meet halfway? PM me. Cheers Alec |

I got mine from a company on Great Western Road... can't remember the name but its two down from a motorbike place. They'll fit them for no extra charge.
DP Motorsport is in Kilmarnock, Ayrshire. I went in when lookin for my M Paras too but they were a bunch of t**ts! |

Alright Charlie.
As I said on SC. Try motorsport Alloys in Cambuslang. They are not that far away and stock quite a big range in store.

Hi Charlie, Welcome to the forum mate, I bought my M parallels from this guy, came within 2 days and bolted straight on to my E39. Really high polish diamond cut finish, I was well happy. Hope this helps |

These are advertised as E38 wheels. E24/28/31/34/38 wheels will not fit on to an E39.
E39 wheels came be made to fit the others by using hubcentrics to reduce the spigot bore. It may be that these wheels need hubcentrics for all applications and the bores are oversize and the size of the reducton required determines the size of the hubcentrics or they may be E39 wheels, but I'd check before buying. |
