Hit someone on that road and see if they still vibrate. That's the true test.

Does the size of the target matter?

Took the shop the tires, boxed up rims and said do it. Cost me $99. How does that compare to other places?
They mounted the tires and balanced the wheels for $25 each? That's cheap! Did they install them as well? Geez.

It does not apply to us the xi/awd model ... the high/big offset Miro is hubcentric for our model.

BTW ... I didn't know that 535xi was available back in '06 as stated in your sig.
Are you sure about the hubcentric part?! Sorry, I don't mean to sound like I'm doubting your statement, but this has to be the most important piece of information that I learned in a long time. I've been shopping for wheels for a while and the only thing that was stopping me from getting the 346s was that I didn't want to deal with hub rings. This is awesome. Where did you get yours from?

Calton - did you know this little piece of information? I can't believe you have a hole in your xi wheel acumen.

Sure? Ummm 'cuz I'm using it right now and been using it for awhile ... but that's just me ... I would suggest to check w/ various vendors that carry Miro like Trinity Autosport and query what's the hub size for high/big offset Miro 346 for your assurance.
