I agree the five-spoke look is awesome. 189s look OK on the E92, but they look much better on an E90.

I want to get some 313s, but they are so damn expensive. Might have to wait until next year.

Thanks fella's.....They actually really grew on me and I like em a lot...Now I'm thinking spacers in the back to fill it in a bit. I was hoping that it would with the larger rear, and it did, just not enough IMO.
Thanks

Joe I would agree with CJ421. Especially on the color of your car as well, they look awesome!

I'm away from home this week ... means I have to drive a Corolla slushbox rental. Now I truly understand the point of buying a BMW.

@Jeller - Love the silver w/ 189's. Looks really sharp! What are you running now?

@CJ421 - It just makes you realize what you really have once you get back into it . This is my first BMW, I thought I had some nice cars before (08 Altima, 06 TSX) but none compare to this!

@Auto - I'm saving my pennies to come see you....My car needs your touch. I've checked out some of the pics and your site....Hopefully soon.

Thanks, running my 162's now, should have Aluflugen SF-71's in the next week or two here hopefully

BTW where are you located around buffalo? Next time we have a E90 gtg or something, I will be sure to invite if you are local.

Love the 162's....I was shopping for those when I got the 189's from Kevin.

I'm in Williamsville. I'm def local, but I'll make a trip almost anywhere if I have the time...
Thanks

I am in Williamsville also I live off Sheridan Dr, not far from Transit.

[CJ421]

Something about this Corolla though ... I can park next to people, not have to look for potholes, and ... my stress level is 0 because I don't have to give a SHIT!

Anyways you guys have experience buying jacks? I want to paint my calipers while the car is new.

[jlaforn]

I'm on Wehrle Dr. near Garrison. So def let me know if there are any meets!

I bought a speed jack from Advance Auto. It's a great jack and inexpensive. I would also invest in those slick adaptors they have that fit it the jack points. Just my $.02 :-)

[Hasek9339]

Hey a quick? Does anyone know of a good place in Buffalo to get window tints!
I need ceramic tint because of my CA (comfort access)

I know about tint shop in Rochester but....... Its a long drive!

Thanks

[autoaesthetica]

Man you guys are boring ... our thread has fallen to the third page!!

I got my 7500k fogs, gonna install them next weekend - going away this week again. Need to get a jack beforehand.
I ordered a sunshade for my car (OEM, from Tischer/getbmwparts - $48), the black interior just gets too hot in the sun even with tint.

I also ordered some BMW Performance metal pedals.

I would have met some of you guys up there..

I ended up dragging the lady with me before we went to Allentown Art Fest. Lovely restomod(sorta) 356 Porka there and gorgeous lineup of vintage Jaguar amongst a bunch of other cars in really great shape.

I think the shady weather didnt help the turn out, but some nice cars indeed. Really like the Lotus 7 (newer model). Too bad I will never fit in one

[jlaforn]

I had to get some work done on the house...BOOOOO But I did see a few nice cars driving to the show. Wasn't sure where they were going. If I got on a computer yesterday I probably would have tried to get up there for a few minutes...
