While I think the rims look GREAT on my BSM (and I'm thinking about having my std 19s powder coated anthracite) the tires are so-so in the cold/dry. LOTS of tread flex and I can tell that I've got a smaller contact patch in the rear (so I guess the tread flex won't last all THAT long  )
Of course, on the way home I ran into a small BOULDER...
(Not sure if you can see from the pic but it friggin DENTED the hood FFS!)
Anyway, I'm not TOO pissed off about it since my 1M is a daily driver and this kind of crap is impossible to control (within reason at least  ) I can take small comfort in the fact that a clear bra would not have helped much on this one  |
Love the look. What BMW model number are these wheels? Also, is there any need for spacers, etc. to make them work with the 1M?
