Love the wheels - not sure about the painted calipers - but each to their own.

I thought I would share this pics with forum members that gave me some great ideas

The new DINAN wheels were expensive but I like the new feel, handling, response, faster take off at traffic lights, cornering and road feel is 100% better

I know the wheels are not as aesthetic as other brands but they are beutifuly understated
I got the Dunlop Maxx Sport wheels they are great so far, not as noisy as run flats but excellent grip and in April rain, they handle just fine

Calipers were painted with G2 paint and they needed it, they were looking rusty and ugly afte 17K miles, dealership did not charge me for it

Thank you to all of you for your your previous disccusions on the various subjects that allowed me to make up my mind and make the changes

Nice Wheels! If you see a Mystic Blue 550i pass you with flashing headlights, that would probably be me. Can you PM me your dealer?. I am looking at putting some new wheels too with summer tires.

I think mudflaps look great with big wheels
