Why would anyone want to put a tow hook on their non-tracked car? It just seems indefensibly poseur-ish.

You have never really been into the JDM scene have you? This is acceptable in some ways....I think it is just color 'scheme/theme' for him.

To me the CSL wheel was for the CSL M3 E46 and it should stay that way.

Also, the choice of wheels does not align with the brakes this car offers. You would think he would want to show them off, not cover them by like 50%. Just my $0.02.
Just something different for a change. I don't expect everyone to love it.

Great job!!! Your car definetly sets itself apart from the others. How do the ST coils feel on everyday driving?

Keep it up.

Great photography as always, but that camber and stretch just looks terrible. If you're that much in love with the wheels you need to either get the wider body panels (if you can get them), get a 1M, or see if you can find a custom 3-piece wheel that fits better.

Yikes.

I normally like CCWs, but when they tires are stretched that much and tucked that far in it just looks weird to me. I think your VMRs looked better. Your form - function scale looks about accurate though, and I'm more of a function guy myself. I bought the car to drive it, not look pretty. There are better looking cars for that than the 1 series.

On the other hand, you deserve credit for doing whatever you like.

Don't put a tow hook on... I know you don't care that it won't serve any function, but it will look even more stupid than it normally would for that reason.
