I agree that the 124s do seem to fit the car and look especially good in one's garage or in the parking lot.? However, when compared to some nice aftermarket wheels, they just pale in comparison.

If you go with 19s and rid yourself of the runflats, by all accounts, you should have better handling with at least the same level of comfort.? So do keep yourself open to that.

If you do get spacers, it should help the look of the car.? The rear wheels especially, seem to be swallowed by the car.

Good advice. I think I will go with spacers for now and put my money into exhaust and chip.

Cool shot - WAG - San Marcos Pass/154???

When there is not traffic! The passing lane can be fun when driving back towards SB. I was on it a couple of weeks ago chasing a Mustang up the hill who thought his V-8 had more power than mine - NOT.
