I'm wearing my cup when I talk to her now 
Yeah now that I have the 20's on I am considering a drop. Probably an Eibach set up.
I have problems. I'm just one of those types that needs everything done ASAP. 
I would have too. Maybe you could buy them for me?
I couldn't justify spending $7K on a set wheels and tires right now. I want HRE P40's...maybe next year. This was a good alternative for now.
So did your wife kick you in the nuts yet. Very nice, Mark. You definitely need spacers in the front. I'm running 15mm in the front, but nothing in the rear. Obviously, our wheels are completely different in terms of specs, but I'm running 15's up front and they're perfect. Now you need to change the suspension and lower it. I did Dinan Stage 2 and Eibach. Although, I am very seriously considering KW's now. Hahahaha!

Thanks for the complements everyone!
Now my next thoughts...
Should I change the bolts to BLACK? I'm kind of not felling the shiny silver bolts.
Should I change the Breyton center caps with the CF BMW Roundels?
Any opinions welcome!
