Looking hot Mike!!!! Needed a new look with all the new found power !!!! Damn, I guess if I can't keep up with you on the power I should start the cosmetic treatment. Hmmm....what should I do next???? Between you and Sun I can't keep up .

What kind of plans do you have in mind for the cosmetics?

Your worst nightmare...
Mike, your beast is a beauty! Those are best Bang for the Buck wheels. When I get the E I will be getting a pair for sure. Just can't go wrong with FS.

Very nice! Really like the red accent. Now for the important stuff. How much do they weigh? What size tires and wheel specs?

wheels saved about 8lbs each over my previous set up and are somewhere in the 21-23lb range iirc. wheels are f 19x8.5 32 offset and r 19x10 35 offset. tires are 255/35/19 and 285/30/19 respectively with zero rubbing even when lowered.

I don't normally like "JDM time attack styled" wheels on luxury Euro sedans, but these really look nice.

What Brembo BBK are you running?
