enjoy folks, and enjoy the easier time getting away from stop lights and stuff because of less rolling resistance from ligter weight (clutch feels a million times better with less weight to spin.)
I know why BMW put light weight forged M-spoke wheels on my last e38 740i. It gives the car a light on its feet feel and the feeling that my butt is riding on glass.

On turns, the grip is fantastic! I don't use the brakes as much now since the grip and confidence is there.

Road noise is minimized. The Michelins are dead quiet.
