Looks great, I think now painting door handles color of the car will be a right thing to do.

Thanks Jay, and thanks for coming out today with your beast and helping out with this crazy adventure!

Roadrage, I must admit I was extremely nervous about this installation but luckily everything turned out 10x better than I expected. We still have a few details to nail down that we couldn't get out of the way today, but we will get back to that after the weekend. Until then, I'm just staring at this thing.

Thanks man. I've been hearing that about the handles a lot. I actually been meaning to wrap that tiny chrome trim piece in black since I got the car. I've replaced all of the other chrome parts on the car (except for the M and BMW badges) with carbon fiber, unfortunately they don't make a carbon fiber door handle trim, so I'm wrapping it black.

Looks epic!

Any rubbing at all front or rear with those monster sized rear tyres? What offsets are the wheels?

Thanks Richard! No rubbing on the front. As of right now I can get the rear to rub very slightly only by trying "on purpose". The only way I've gotten it to happen is by purposely driving fast over large dips on the road or sharply around corners and only with the suspension on comfort with the H&R springs. Sport and Sport Plus settings make it just about impossible. To be safe though WB and ADV1 are going to work on shaving of some of the rear wheels hub off by 2 or 3mm to eliminate the slight rub by bringing the offset slightly in. Turns out that what the rears are rubbing on is a small protrusion (couple of millimeters) that the car has inside the wheel wells where the rear fenders and rear bumpers meet. I don't have the exact offsets right now but I will find out for you specially for the rears after the small correction.

For those of you wondering about the 21x12s with the 325/25/21. I've attached a little picture. I can also now confirm that traction is greatly improved both from a roll and from launches. Acceleration that would cause wheelspin in the past now result in no wheelspin. Launches are cleaner and the car grips better. Let's see how the tires hold up in the long term compared to the PSS.

Wow those wheels, how much were they if you don't mind ?

You can do that, and as far as badges you did a right thing, it cheapens the looks of the car right away when replaced

Twitch, car looks awesome, the wheels are perfect for that car!
Can't wait to get mine also, than we can do a photoshoot, maybe of all 3 of them.

Looks really good man. The finish on the wheels compliments the car perfectly and the look the car has now is just badass man!

Thanks Brian! I'm still amazed at how well everything worked out with this fitment and how much I'm enjoying the wheels, not just the look but also the 325 tires have made a believer out of me. I've been stress testing them hard and there is just so much better grip now from the added contact area with the road. I'm slapping BMS back in to see what I can do now that my tires don't spin like tornados on launches.

BTW here are some pictures from today's visit at ADV1 HQ and Wheels Boutique to take care of some minor details, cause it's really all in the details with these things. Wish I had more pictures to show and better ones for that matter, but Florida weather has been all over the place these days, and I rather wait for my official shoot with ADV1. Also take a close look at the first picture and try to guess what car drove by in front of Wheels Boutique as we hung out there. Hint: If I had nine hundred and eighteen problems this car would be all of them.

PM sent on pricing.

P.S. Door handle trim finally wrapped in gloss black today!
