I have no dispendable cash to purchase $6000 wheels and I really like the M5 wheels. I was thinking of getting the Breyton Race GTSRM wheels but I think the M5 deserve better wheels even though I love them so much. Heck I may buy it next year anyway but for now, what to do about my stockers?
I wanna do it like JOHN but not sure if it will match interlagos blue. Either powdercoat gloss black insides and machine face like JOHN, or semi-gloss black, or matte black. What to do what to do??
Freakin car's still not here yet and I am already buying mods left and right for it.
Call me nuts!!! I already have the Hartge Splitters and diffuser, HID angels, 6000K D1S, MTEC License plate lamps, the one and only super crazy ultimate blind you led interior kits which would not be sold in the market, HID reverse, and 2 cans of plasti-tip for the grills and fender gills.
Will order next week is spacers, extended bolts, H&R springs,
Then after I drive the M5, I will order the RPI pulley, RPI full exhaust, RPI scoops and BMC filter, RPI block-off plates. Wanna see how it feels stock for a bit first. haha.
And also, should I debadge the car? I want to!!

DO NOT DEBADGE. Re-badge with gloss black M5 badge. You better get that car on a dyno before the RPi mods....and those interior LEDs....I'm interested

Congrats on your new ride! My fav color! I would do the badges in blk chrome or Mfest badge.
Keep your 166 and powdercoat in Semi-gloss blk. This will give you the best ride and EDC will still works.
I've tried springs and KW's on 20's and the stock ride was the best. Save money for the power mods!
6 mos later you can get the ESS supercharged! Enjoy your new toy
