Selling unfinished project car. Do not have enough time to finish, two kids and career?. Was heading in the ProTouring direction with the car. Due to brake swap I needed to run 17 inch wheels. As required by budget I installed a set of FREE 17inch BMW wheels in the mean time to keep it off the ground. You get to pick your own wheels. This is a running vehicle.
