Heezy,

Wheels are made by Asanti. Lips are not black they are chromed. Not sure what percentage the tint is but went with the medium tint vs. dark on all windows. Dark with black interior would have looked too dark.

Car looks awesome!How wide are your 20's ans what size tires you got on? Here's mine with 19" Breyton Magics and H&R springs and no sports package.(lowered 1.2" front and rears)

Very nice...I like the look. Never liked all black wheels...but I'm seeing a lot of wheels around town (SoCal like you) that are black but have the chrome lip...and I think they look great!

Each car is modded cleanly and I personally prefer them to the stock look.

Honesty is good, and I would welcome your comments if these were my cars, but quite frankly you remind me of a few individuals at roadfly.

LouDawg, did you have the centres painted black to match or did they come that way?
Nice combo by the way

6spdMan,

Glad you like the combo.. They are custom made 3 piece wheels so the center piece was painted black when they were made.

Black wheels a bit aggresive for my taste, but enjoy!

Why didn't either of you get the sport pachage?

I can't stand the chrome trim on BMW's - reason enough to get the Sport Package. Also, with the sport package the car comes lower than normal. Why mess with springs when you don't have to.
