I have the Rieger diffuser for the Mtech rear bumper in stock

The picture looks like the mtech w/ Rieger diffuser.

I think Remus is good, but a little too quiet for my taste.

Joe! Good to see you on this thread again!

I've been PMing with Nerwyll regarding some mods. Especially the exhaust system and diffuser. I drove a 530i with Magnaflow exhaust on it the other day and it was really loud. The Remus suits my ears a bit better.

And I'd have to say that they're nice but not that nice for that price. You could get a whole bunch of other brands at that pricing range, HRE,etc
You can get HRE for around the US$1300 mark in Taiwan??? That's much cheaper than Korea. In Korea, there is only one dealer for HREs and they want about US$2500.00 a piece for HREs.

How much are BMW Style 167 M (OEM) wheels in the U.S.? In Korea they are about US$800.00 each.

Dunno anything about the exhaust but I think you should get BBS! heheheh
Just found out that the lowest price I can get on the BBS LM/LM-R 19s is about US$7,300 for a set without tires. With Michelin PS2s (front 245/35R19 and rear 275/35R19) the whole set will cost me nearly US$10,000. For that amount of money, I'd rather get iForged or HREs. I guess I'm getting the 167 Ms! With the same tires, the 167 M (OEM) set is half the price! That is before any discount on the wheels!!! I think I'll spend the difference on other mods! Like the ECU (when ECU tuning for the LCI 528i comes out) and do some mild work on the audio to get a bit more bass.

Well, I'm still thinking about it. I went down to a local BBS dealer and saw the real thing. The lip is removable so if
it gets damaged, it can be taken off easily, repaired or replaced (replacement is around 130$)...

The front is 8.5 19" and the rear is 10j.....

Dunno, what you think?
Mike,

No more interest in the BMW Style 166 M (OEM) wheels anymore?
