david, do you still have your old wheels? can i borrow those for few days? my car is in bmwsf now, and the new wheel rubbing like hell without any passenger on freeway. i don't want to carry extra 4 wheels, (over another 200 lbs) from my home to machiii. after i get my wheels back, i will return your old wheels to you. 156 will be fine, if you still have them. i think you are the one who live closest to machiii, right?

gruppe M is louder as predicted. the air scoop is bigger so im assuming it gets more air flow straight to the filter.

my 156's are actually at Alex's house...he stored them in the basement. The 189's on the other hand are still at Mach III...but you have to ask Alex for that one, I was actually planning to fetch them back today and attempt to sell them here. You can use my 156's though, you just gotta help me move them from his house. (not too far away from MACH III)

oh, if that's the case, it's okay. i can go home to get my wheel and use the ugly loaner to carry my old wheels to machiii first, then go back to dealer to get my car. i'm just too lazy to cross the bridge again.

i don't know, maybe today, if they can fix my car today. but it's okay, since i have nothing to do this afternoon, i can just go home and get my own.

it really depends what kind of sound you prefer...a more subtitle or aggressive.

Here's a clip I made for JLEVI, I think it best represents my intake.
