but as far as safety goes, i think the sacrifice is going to be minimal by lowering the car. it aint like you hit a pothole and your car is going to swerve off the corner of the road or anything.

but i think you need the drop to complement the look you are going for, the sporty aggressive look

Thanks John for the advice!

The problem here is that I dont have the M Adaptive Suspension. I have the regular suspension on a Luxury Line.

Would this make any difference?

Yes, I do want to get a mean sporty look for my car and therefore desperately want to lower it. The roads around my house and at work are fine, however along the way I do find a lot of pot holes and stuff which gets extremely annoying.

Really I dont know what to do?

IMHO, if ur keeping the car, remove the chrome trim around the windows, makes it look too elegant. The sportline comes without the chrome trim which looks more flush.

I actually like the rims, im sure they look even 100x better in person. Tho I like clean stock looks which is why id prefer to get some sort of bmw replica rims, but of good quality.

To each his own.

I want my car to be different. I have carefully and thoughtfully planned out my mod project. In real life, my car looks extremely different than what you see in the pictures above.

The chrome around the windows goes perfectly with the stance wheels. Once I tint my car and add the vinyl, you'll see a contrast that will be met with the M Performance Grills.

I didn't go for Black or plain calipers but went with red, in fact it's like Candy Red (bright red) and this gives a great contrast with the overall white colour of my car.

I'm very happy so far!

I'm just thinking about the M Performance Spoiler, H&R Sport Springs and the M Performance Exhaust.

If you're ever around my office (Dixie and Eglinton) or my home (heartland/square one) area, let me know. I'll show you my car and you'll know exactly what I'm talking about.

Anyone know where I can get painted reflectors here in Toronto and get them installed?

Balzz, can you shed some light on this?

I want the red calipers so freaking bad but I'm probably return the car at the end of the lease so I don't know what the hell to do... Direct calipers would match my red seats LOL

How long is your lease?

The paint will probably last a year or two max!

I don't work for stance nor am I paid to market their wheels (I wish I was)...but these wheels are nothing short of amazing! I've had people stare at my wheels as if they've never seen them before. I had a lot of random people walk up to me (few of them were hot girls) and ask how big were the wheels and where I got them from...

LOL

and the red calipers help these wheels stand out even more!

I'll post pics as soon as I get the other mods done...

After seeing your wheels I'm reconsidering my preference of the AG M355s.
Decisions... decisions...
