good point, comments from people who can settle with stock 16" on alloy wheels just don't sounds right.

The shop I go is up the street from the Advan Shop....Cheung Kee...
i went both. Both are good. Advan shop show a lot of wheel at the shop, but quite pricy. Cheung Wah Kee can order any one for you from the dealers.

Yeah the price they quoted is more than that guy in the forum, but I just got an email from them and he said that they will match the quote if got from US.

They will trade in my rims too if i need to. I dont know how much they are worth!

I believe stuffs like SB or Velocity have less electromagnetic interference than other gadgets in car like... radio and CD player. Cars like prius have more EM interference around since it practically has a small generator in it.

your MB should be fine.

hey guys, with the electronic gas pedal problems of late, including the chance of electromagnetic

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 saw that as well. that's Advan Xi. Nice, but if you like it better have a look on Advan 151C. Look very close, except more spoke. much cheaper, you can save at least 5K for a set of four quoted from shop other than Advan shop.

see my previous post : https://5series.net/forums/topic/360...age__st__19035

But they in Chrome, other colour need to order.
