We can start dinner at AK around 8pm then go for a drive afterwards around 9.30pm.
Mark and Will, are you guys able to come? Since many of us wanna see your new toys
Not sure, see how busy I'm on Tue, unless Mark is there, that's a whole new story, but definitely not ND.

Yes the rims are BBS, the model is called LM.
FYI, the product number to be #121 for front (19"x8.5") and #148 for rear (19"x10")
The new set of tyre will be 245/35R19 and 275/30R19 respectively.
Tell you one thing which I think I am stupid.

Recently, I feel that my rim (stock 17") is boring after I see you guys rim and it is so common on the street. So I want to change it. However, I have changed new tyres BS RE001 before knowing you guys. So the tyres are damn new, just 3 months ago. And I am very happy with the RE001. If I change 19" rim and tyre now, I lost a lot on it.

So, I am thinking of changing to new 17" rim (second hand) until the existing 17" tyres dead and require to change. It should cost not much for a set of second hand 17" rim. It serves two purposes: (a) give me a fresh feeling on the rim; (b) save my wallet for a moment.

But I have a bit feeling that this action is stupid, so 15/16

yes it is stupid
just use the tyres for 1 more year and the get new rims
it will be very hard to get 17" for our cars, 18,19 and 20 are much easier to buy.
