What the hell are you guys doing on the BQE? That road is notorious for making a mess of high end wheels.

You should post this on M5Board. I bet someone will come forward. I'm not a huge fan of those red centers. It might look better in person, but that just isn't working well.

I've been lucking so far. Been traveling on the BQE alot for the past year and nothing. I'm in my company car, it's a Ford Sport Trac so I'm not worried of messing up nothing.

I'm on the BQE all the time going to Staten Island.. I hate the BQE.. and I slow down like crazy on the bumps and potholes I know of.

Could that be why the owner has not come forward yet...
