Never a fan of stretched tires & the stance look, but this car looks amazing. Wow!

Yeah it's definitely something new to me as well. I was pretty nervous about it, but at the ride height I'll eventually run with my camber settings, I'd say it's necessary, haha. Plus my M3 has a meaty tire setup, so I wanted to try something different here.

I know! I was actually nervous someone would beat me to it, haha. I'll definitely be snapping more soon. We've been hit by rain/snow every day since the wheels went on. Just my luck.

I think that's the same face I made when they were unboxed.

Just for kicks, here are a few old photos of my M3 as well. Gotta take that thing out of storage and snap some new ones.
