Guys,
I need to start searching for a new set of rims & tires for my upcoming bimmer (as you can see from my new signature). Just one question, assume that I found one but they are overseas (i.e. in the classified forum here). Do I need to pay the 85% taxes upon receiving the shipment? Thanks in advance!

Go 18" you wouldn't regret it.
Saw a 19" set on this site www.sunhingmotor.com.hk under the used section. That rim is from 745i and only 5000 bucks. They say it fits a 5.

I've read those oil post and found that people are claming the car is consuming oil during the break in period. I have 3200 km so far and no sign of eating oil. Does anyone here have this problem, or this is an American problem.

We just finished the mini installation meet outside my home. Unfortunately, we failed to install the grill for Shield. He got the flaps behind the grill, there is no way for us to access the side clips, after numberous try, we gave up. So Bunbun, you may have to take your car to a garage to have them install it for you.
It's time to organize another meet now. Just have that idea with AC_S5 we can have a meet at late November/early December. Any suggestions? Did we mention we can have a BBQ meet last time?

As suggested, shield and bunbun could take it to the shop that pogo1 use to install the grill. Those flaps are impossible to access, they should not be there in the first place.
BBQ is good and I suggest that place at Sai Kung. Free parking and a golf driving range.
