Goodbye summers :(

Realized I don't have a proper side shot of my car with the new wheels. Go figure. Well, I decided to take a couple pics before I swap wheels (probably this weekend or next) Sorry for the iPhone quality, couldn't find my camera



And some shots of the fitment, it turned out really well.

Thanks, your car looks great too! Hopefully I'll get a chance to see it in person at the Charity Meet.

Thanks Mike. I can't wait to hear what your car sounds like with the new x-pipe! Those undercarriage shots got me all hot and bothered.

How do you like the KW V3's? I'm thinking about purchasing them but heard a lot of people have issues with them squeaking... Have you had this problem?

They're great for around town, ok at the track. I'd like them a bit stiffer but they offer pretty good adjustability. Spring rates are crap for the e92 but the shock valving is nice. With the swift spring upgrade they're up there with the AST 4100s

Pulled my summers off yesterday. Back to stock for me. But damn, pulling those RE050A's off really shows you how terrible they are. Grip is great in the right weather, but they're loud and don't like bumps.

Feels like a brand new car going back to the stock rubber.. which are also RFT.

I totally agree. I've been enjoying the forgiveness of my squishy blizzaks for the past couple weeks- no more cringing going over pebbles anymore
