Thanks for all the replies guys!
Even the comments about what u don't like. I appreciate it.
Had I been on this forum before I bought my rims chances are I would have something different, like the miro 111..
However, its the set up I got now, but i def have some work to do
Learnt lots from u guys- thanks

Your car would look better if you lower it more. The blackout theme is not complete without a crazy drop imo. But then again, it's your car, and it's up to you what you wanna do to it. One thing is for sure, though. I saw your sig, and I noticed that you might wanna get the BMS Powerbox sometimes in the future. I can tell you now that it's not possible. Your car is a 2004, which means it still has the M54 engine. The BMS Powerbox is only for the N52/53 engine. Sorry. But you can still get the RPi scoop, and you can always get the BMC Filter. It's a very nice filter.

Jon, As I'm sure you know, at the end of the day its all about what makes you happy and remembering that its a work-in-progress. There are no "right" answers regarding how your car should look. As others suggest; whatever floats your boat. I'm not so happy with my Lexani wheels either and soon enough I would like to change to the Breyton GTSR-M wheels with an even more aggressive offset and spacing. All in due time I imagine.
Did u lower your car at all?

That's okay. More money to save and spend on somethig else.. Hmmmmm..
Rpi scoop I really want but don't want to get raped on duties when it crosses the boarder to Canada
I can't find any if rpi products locally :thumbsdown:
And 110% i want to lower my car. I am very disappointed with the drop. I didn't want to slam it on the floor like these vdubs, sp I went with 1.2 all around and it's okay, looks better then stock, but def not low enough.. I think I have to get a full set of adjustable Coilovers.. I have so much work to do to the car I dot know where to spend my money first

Ya 100% my car is my style. To each is own. But ya I agree offset ad spacing would be nice.. In my opinion stance is everything!!

My car has not been lowered at all...but it may be in the works also. The 20 profile tire gives a lil' optical illusion of being closer to the ground.
