Don't get me wrong I love the car, but it is not a M. I miss the feel of a M car if that makes sense. After driving a modded E46 M3 for over 8 years the F30 feels extremely disconnected and muted from the actual experience of driving. I am by no means 'trying' to sell it, but if an E90 M falls in my lap locally and this moves, then it will happen. It is more of a feeler than anything to see if there is actual local interest in the car.

No need to explain to me.

I have the M-Car experience in the other garage.

Life would be more complicated if I had to have both experiences in one.

I looked through the thread and saw that they are 19s and the tires are 235/35/19 and 265/30/19.

What about the width of the wheels and offsets? Looks SICK.

Here is a teaser the photographer sent me. All I did with it is save it to my photobucket, cropped the people out of the sides, and hit autofix, whatever that does.

Super easy. Go under the car, reach you hand up, and just pop them out. You will see what I mean when you are under there.

Sweet, what about the offsets? I have 19x9 front and 19x10 on the way. Curious how your offsets compare to mine.

Morr doesn't want me to say so I'm being quiet about it. It was part of the deal.

Comparatively though I will say that those are some nice conservative offsets.

Siiiiick, I have one on the way too. What is up with that square plate welded on?

I can't wait for you to get it installed and comment on the volume of the exhaust and the sound inside the car!
