Thanks guys!
I don't think they are squishy, although it's harder to tell with the Active Roll Stabilizer. I used to have Bridgestone Pole Positions on my E39 and they feel pretty close. But on another note, I'm surprised on how quiet these S.Drives are.

Very classy look. BTW, I was thinking of dumping my General UHP's for those Yokohama S.Types. How do they respond when you throw the car into a corner at high speed? Do you feel a soft and squishy sidewall?

If you want to do something to your grilles let me know - I just painted mine and they look great in gloss black.

Cars looks great. Great wheels.
I'd do the M-Tech front and rear bumper next.
