Thank you sir! She's my pride and joy. Still lots to do though.

Concerning wheels, they are officially 19x8.5" / 19x9.5" with a 40/48 mm front/rear offset, respectively. There all also 3mm spacers front and rear. The only time i've had rub is at 45mph+ over a pretty good size bump. Nothing at full lock or at speed on smooth / mildly bumpy roads. Not even issues with hard cornering, but I've never tracked her, so I've never cornered her to her max either. but, I love them. It's a great setup I think. Incredibly aggressive and planted, and still beautiful through corners.

Did you have them custom made? The performance is stitched right? do you mind sharing your source?!? hehe

all the Alcantara Parts are of my own making
at first i used a "fake" alcantara ( grey) but then i
switched to original alcantara ( deep-black)
the dash hood is still covered in fake alcantara ..have to change it one day

already sold a couple "Trim-Set's" ova here but the guy who is making
the stitching for me is to bussy currently that's why i have to wait bevore i can continue making Trims
