Advan is a good choice if compare with weight and price to the Breyton GTS

no way BMW will be over 30k
IMO, the quality is there.
You can simply ask BMW to redo if you feel the colour is not right. Doubt if other garages would have this guarantee. My 2 cent

The price difference is enough for several paint jobs, but yea it's less hassle doing it with bmw.

Must go for taiwan wheel if want it cheap and light and new at the same time.

GTS look very good as well, would go for it if it's lighter.

yea, so far no regrets. have to say the bbk/wheel combo get the most attention among my mods.

you just need to pull a straight face and try to look smarter when u spot the guy in the car next to you checking out the wheel/bbk at red lights, and step deeper on the gas when it turn green. need to calculate the extra cost of fuel when going for such mods!

Lighter wheel, loading reduce which should use less gas than OEM.
Your problem should came from often step deeper while green light turn on and race with FK taxi driver.
