Every time i see this post i think, oh no someone bricked their ECU only to realize that this is the name of the OP. Consider changing your name?

This is factually correct. It is impossible to go back; your body will reject it.

Getting caught up with a few updates; been a while!

When last we spoke, I was intent on swapping out the the orange crusty zit scab otherwise known as the amber reflector. And so I have done. Now it's more like a flaky healing zit scab that you feel like you could pick off without causing bleeding. But when you do of course it bleeds anyway and you're like, "why the hell didn't I leave it alone! Idiot!"



Bottom line is, at the right distance and angle it all but disappears! So I'm happy about that.

HRE FF01 - 19x8.5 et30 all around, 245/35 Conti DWS. It's their Anthracite finish, which I'm pretty happy with. Not as nice (neither the paint, nor the application) as the satin finish on my grey CH-R's once upon a time though.







Bought four fronts so as to keep a square setup. Also got a pair of 5mm h&r spacers for the rear which for odd bolt fitment reasons are not currently on the car. You can see how the fronts are poking a little. Would look just right to me with an inch drop but that ain't happening soon.



Rears fit a little cleaner IMO with the narrower track, but they'll be pushed out soon with the spacers to match the slight poke up front. I can't even imagine running the aggressive 10" rear HRE suggests without serious camber or way narrower tires.



one more…



Also, I was under the impression TPMS worked through the ABS like my Audi but now I'm reading we have the actual sensors...

Whoops and/or Lame.

Thanks to Mops (from the audi pages) and Supreme Power parts for the wheels and dealing with weird delivery issues. And to Jimminez and other folks for fitment advice.

Also, if any mods are reading feel free to move this thread to the photo/gallery/journals sub-forum if you like. sorry/thanks!

I give this an A+. Always good to see another sexy F31 on the road.

If I didn't daily drive NYC/NJ, I'd go with a set of wheels just like these. They look great!
