Red Velvet // E Cabrio on Hyper Forged Wheels

A few weeks ago we posted an E coupe on a set of ADV.1 wheels (). It was a very good looking car with the best quality, upper-class aftermarket parts. The edges were sharp, the fascia was aggressive; the whole package looked very masculine. Today we have another Mercedes Benz E Class. This one’s slightly different though. The red colored …

Show Off // Mini Coupe on DPE

At a glance upon receiving today’s material, I thought the wheels on this Coupe were some sort of BBS RS. However, after a closer look and reading the spec, Permaisuri mentioned that these wheels are in fact DPEs! Closer inspection on these black wheels reveal a very different design compared to the BBS. The DPE RFK has a much more …

Emerging wheel companies rely on them to create outstanding offerings, while the established ones have updated their line up with more alluring concave designs. Even OEM has now been offering concave designs for their wheels, like the BMW Performance 313 wheels you’re looking at right now. Doesn’t this whole concave trend intrigue …

Stance Off // White E34 5 Series

A lot of people these days treat their cars as if they are gadgets. They feel the urge to continuously await for and upgrade to the newer models. Older models are often regarded as inferiors to the newer ones; and this isn’t their fault either. A lot of car companies have marketed their newer models with catchy phrases that include …

Stance Off // E36 Duo

Last week’s featured post of Donny’s immaculate E36 sparked up our interest towards stanced E36 BMWs. Today Alwafi has shared with us some pictures from his most recent photo session involving two nicely-fitted E36s. The first E36 (black) is owned by Bonny. He has done M52B25 swap to his E36 and also applied quite a handful of other performance modifications …

Show Off // E Class on Vertini

The location of the shoot, the black bodied Mercedes E300, the concave Vertini wheels, all contributed to the prestigious and sophisticated feel of today’s set of pictures. The E300 has been touched by several mild modifications to complement its luxurious image. The Vertini concave wheels, in particular, have boosted the modern and upper class look of the car. The wheels’ …

Show Off // Infinity M37 on Rav

I still remember the days when 22″ wheels were only applicable to SUVs; the days when fenders on sedans had to be extremely modified to fit those large wheels. Today, things have gradually changed. As consumers grew their preference towards larger wheels, manufacturers have started producing cars that can accomodate them. Today’s Infinity, for example, has fenders that look picture …

Deep Off Blue // Donny’s E36 3 Series

Article is written by Donny the owner himself, and edited by me “I’ve always been a fan of BMW E36s, as well as any of the various generations of 3 Series. I like 3 Series because, most often than not, they have the largest aftermarket and replacement parts support, both from the manufacturer and also from third parties. For an …

Executive Speedster // 325i LCI BMW Performance

At first sight, you might’ve thought that the ride we have here seemed quite similar to other commonly found BMWs. It’s got four doors, it’s a 3 Series, and aesthetically there’s nothing too gaudy about it. No fancy branded wheels, no aggressive fitment, no colorful body wraps; there’s absolutely nothing about it seems out of place. The modifications, in fact, …

When Class Meets Sport // S500 on Carbon 360 Forged

To get into perspective of what we have today, let’s start off with the car itself. The owner chose the S-Class S500. I tell you it is not the ‘budget’ S300, nor the ‘people mover’ S350; instead it is the vigorously powerful S500. To put it simply, it’s like having a race car engine inside the engine bay of large, …

Show Off // Lexus CT 200h on HRE

When first introduced, hybrid cars were very much thought by petrolheads as being undoubtedly boring. They would say that hybrids were simply intended to fulfill the passion of electrical engineering nerds while completing the checklist of eccentric environmentalists. Apparently, in a way, they were quite true. The first batch of hybrid cars produced seemed to have been designed by geeks …

Stance Off // E39 5 Series on BBS

BBS CH-R wheels are amongst the most popular aftermarket wheels in the European tuning society, with most of them usually fitted to track oriented cars. This has been mostly due to the origin of the wheel’s design itself. The BBS CH-R wheels are very similar to the wheels that came as standard on Ferrari 360 Challenge. Despite the wheels’ performance …
