Gonna switch them next summer.
Please share your secrets to tire longevity... I was going through several sets per summer!

Nice looking wheels and car.

Yes I was very happy to find the car in this colour. It stands out from all the black, white and silver E91’s out there

Great combo of the Bronszit-like color with the M5 reps. Very unique!

Took davidwarren's suggestion from his thread Brake ducts for stock brakes. Installed NACA ducts on my engine underbody tray. Over the weekend, will modify the front brake backplates and route 2.5 inch flex tubing between the NACA ducts and the backplates.

Fender pull/rolled/shaved and fitted 265/35/18 on 219 wheel ET23 with lowered suspension on the rears. This is on a E90 stock LCI with wider track. No rub!

Big job today: installed alcantara performance shift knob and alcantara shift boot. Phew, that was tough! Almost 2 minutes of my life spent on this one...and looks awesome. Might pony up for the e brake now.

Ordered the Rotiform R-139 KPS wheels, 2 tone black, front 8.5x19, rear 10x19 with Michelin tires, PSS (or whatever they are called now) 275/245-19, changed the wind-shield washer fluid pump after a leak, and switched out one fog projector lens in the bumper, oil change, picked up a new quickjack-5000 hydraulic compact lifts. Basically a successful, day getting all the right things for the wife for an early Christmas.

On the fence a bit if I will switch out the FSD suspension with sport suspension with the PSS10 as I like it so much on another car. Let me know if interested, about 1-1.5 years old max and driven by my wife, carefully!

They're OEM 513M off an M4. Forged. 18x9 & 18x10
With tires, the setup was about $2200.

Polished the paint and put on gtechniqs CSL coating will post pics later today.

Also replaced the L7 amp with a Helix V-Eight DSP. Still have to tune the EQ and set the phase, but it already sounds amazing.

Mishimoto intake hose on N51. With charcoal delete and K&N sounds really good. Throttle is more linear.





While I was in there tightened the lower steering joint clamp. This is for loose steering play. Didn't do much for me though.
