Looks great... I like the stance... It seems that even with the car low enough that the tires fill the gap there is enough ground clearance??? I'd like a slight drop but I don't have the best roads around here in the high desert of so cal. I don't want my front bumper all trashed just because of the look.. I need to wait a couple years lol

I could go lower on the coilovers but I would A, never get up my driveway and B, sacrifice the handling.

So far I haven't had a chance to push it but in degular driving it is as comfortable as stock. Seems really tight, so I am looking forward to trying some twistees.

I think that would look good. The nice thing about the "winning blue" to me is that it is almost black but has some extra "character".

Has that warm feel my old carbon black m5 used to give me. The pattern of the spokes on the 57extreme resembles the silver part of the Oem wheels hence y I like the specific wheel. Beautiful setup
