BTW; what is a 'Netherlands mod'?

Its hard to say if the 18's will give you a more rough ride as I am coming from 19's down to 18's which increase the ride smoothness tremendously. I would assume that with less sidewall your ride would get more rough going from 17's to 18's but minimal I would expect. Netherlands mod is where it beeps when you lock and unlock it, done via STAR

the bremma's are a really good classic look in my opinion, a great way to upgrade your car while maintaining a classy look at the same time.

Yes they are, although they seem to be listed by some online sellers still. Funny, I just cracked a rim and discovered that my rims are Bremma reps, not actual TSW's as I was informed The new 18"s are PERFECT with your blacked-out trim!

Looks great!!!

But why dont keep the same wheel model but in 18´s?

I was thinking in get a second wheels and tires package just for the track and i think that TSW Valencias are a good choice.
