What a beautiful car! I have the same color, same wheels, but sans the aero kit. Don't think it would be politically correct for me to spend any more at this time.

How do you compare the ride to the runflats? I have PS2's and there is no comparison. This is a different car!
I do agree the runflats are not the best tire option for this car. The Michelin Pilots AS's have been great so far. I would say about the same noise level as the runflats but much better on the road as far as comfort and ride is concerned. It has snowed here a couple times since I got these wheels and surprisingly the car handles fairly well in the snow. That was a huge bonus for me.

And the 19's are no question a better ride than the 18 inch (Style 124) wheels I had on it before. I am amazed at how much better it rides with the 19s than it did with the 18s. That isn't supposed to happen.

And yes as lame as it may be I do stare at it a lot. My wife is officially scared of me.

glad to see you kept the car Ryan . Doesn't the m kit completly change the look of the car? Sears body shop does good work and they are pretty quick. Now there is at least two of us in Mn.
