"Smart Car Tipping" hits on Google Images for your viewing pleasure...

It's horrible that this is happening to people, but at least PETA won't go ape sh!t about this like they do for cow tipping. Green Peace might though...

That's screwed up.. This is getting me worried, since I just ordered a spoiler for 180.

At that price you shouldn't worry to much..... I lost over $600 because it was the OEM M6 spoiler and no aftermarket were available back when i bought mine. Back then, there wasn't a demand for 6 series aftermarket spoiler. I bought mine for the same exact price as yours and the quality seems really good. The only downside about the aftermarket is that is PLASTIC, HOLLOW inside and lightweight.

However, i think it's better lightweight because with the OEM, when i remote press the trunk opener the truck would just stay halfway close because of the weight on top of it.

Wheels are OEM 20inch. The set come with Non-RUN FLATS.

Front: Michelin Pilot Super Sport 265 35 20 and Rear:Michelin Pilot Super Sport 295 30 20

BTW the NON-RFT came to me as a surprise. Now i'm worry to get a flat bc car does not have donuts tires.

It's the same one on stock M6GC right? So is it the OEM 343s?
Any fitting or rubbing issue? Some folks told me the one on m6 will not fit the regular 6s. BTW, is the Michelin PSS far better than our RFTs what are Dunlop sport maxx GT?

Thanks a lot.

There is only one part # for these wheels. They are 433 wheel style and i didn't have any fitting issue. However, i noticed that the REAR tires rubs sometimes with the underneath plastic area when u have heavy people in the back.

Additionally, the rear tire are so WIDE that they stick out a little and make the car stance more aggressive (I will post some picture of this).

As for tire comparison, I noticed that the Michelin are far BETTER because the car felt a lot comfortable on road and pot holes. Also these stick to the road like glue for grip!

And before the change, i ran over (6) Dunlop tires replaced due to side wall bubbles with the 356 wheel styles. Worst tire i ever had. There's a whole forum about these tires. Everyone is getting side wall bubbles.
