but of cos, this is totally personal preference...

Cheers,

Me too If I had a GTR I would not spend too much on the mods, keep it for a year and get other fun car to drive
Save the money and get other car to play with

both are very nice.
sorry when I say jap wheel, what I mean is putting japanese style like the 1s on MK cars, gold :thumbsdown:

For the GTR, i would go for Rays...or something like this...but I don't think I will invest anymore in the GTR...
I have seen these on 3er but it dose look odd on a 5er.

BBS and Neez prob has the best quality, but we would be arsed to find the difference between the forged, unless we are racing.
Mike prob has the best experience as he races.

Mark you are bloody hyped up man, you are the prodigal son, make the decision now and get the stuff before the next drive!!!
i'll have to whip my bodykit guy to speed things up for the next meet or else i will be the new Capt Boring,
currently PINGU HK the 16inch (wheel) man is reigning Captain BORING,
give it out large to him, we don't want to be following some geeky dork in a 16inch pram wheeled E60 beemer,
ET talk some sense to him!!!
Im ill right now so no sense can go into me.

Sorry Captain 16, you are not qualified (right now) to comment on alloy wheels, because you are still on 16inch!!!!!!!!!
change them and then be an authority on commenting on any alloy wheel >16inch


boys, lets see if he can take any more flak

ET and Ricky you are the Electronic guys, can you give an opinion, i am considering to add something but am afraid of more stringent checks on this by the warranty and insurance people
which could void my insurance and warranty, and God forbid make my car dangerous??!!!
shit, Toyota/Lexus had to spoil the party.
I would check out the MB about the SB on your new car before you install 1.
nothing will void insurance unless you touch the engine.
ask Will he knows he just claimed his wife car.

AK shop have one 2nd SB suit for you. It's easy to uninstall before warranty inspection if worry about. As far as I know. More MB owner used under Zung Fu warranty.
