After I asked AK to smoothen my brake discs, changing the 2 rear pads, change oil... to my surprise, I also found my tyres ran out before I expected and they even started to have cracks as well, so I just changed my rims to the 18 inch As-you-can-Cee with 17mm spacers at the back (feel real good on corners now) while changing my tyres. Now the stearing seemed a little too light... I guess I started to understand why you guys are using the M5 stearing wheel other than that it looks good ![](http://www.av-forums.net/plus/images/smilies/default/icon_embarrass.gif)
Although Ak and many brothers recommend me not to, but I just couldn't resist, I have asked Ak to order in the okada projects coils, waiting for it now
I hope they works as I anticipated.
Brother keith84_uk, any news from UK?

Big congrat to you. They sure look sexy and match your car perfectly. Look forward for more great photos.

They look really NICE indeed, and definitely worth every penny that you've spent!!

I love the semi-black chrome finish, it looks great with your white M3 and your newl Black matte grills.
The front looks very deep already
but guys, look at the rear wheel!! SWEET
