Nice, wonder how they'd look on my Sedona. Maybe too dark?

looks nice. I have the bright silver Breytons on mine and I get complements on them almost daily. most people think they're some sort of special ordered option from BMW because I have the BMW roundels on them.

Thanks for the compliments! Stock Sport Pkg suspension - Connecticut roads can be pretty tough - but the Hotchkis front bar should be here any day. Yes, these are 18"s, 7.5's w/225's front and 8.5's w/255's rear. Tires are Mich Pilot Sports A/S plus and handle as well as most summer tires, amazing. Have saved an avg. of 7.5 lbs of unsprung weight per corner and can really feel it everywhere, all the time!

Another thing, my N/A engine really seems to be coming alive now that I'm around the 5K mark. You have to drive these things "like a BMW" for them to really break in all the way. My previous 330i was purchased with 30K on the clock but still felt tight in the upper rpm band for a while, until I introduced her to some "proper treatment"...hehe. As you may be able to tell, I ain't lettin' the 135 guys have all the fun...woohooooooo!!!

Sedona Red w/ Matte Grey? I think that would make a killer combo!! The darker wheels bring to mind the top tier of performance. I notice that many manufacturer's top level machines often use darker wheels to differentiate from the more pedestrian offerings. Go for the Mattes Acivick!

Silver Breytons help keep the stock look

Yeah, the silvers will help you maintain a stock look while still setting you apart in a major way! I also used the roundels, much nicer.

Yeah I think with silver or gray, red adds a good accent. My plans incluse adding the CF kidney grilles, maybe the CF spoiler, I want to achieve a tasteful yet aggressive silver/gray/CF look. I admit to not knowing what a time attack is. Is that like when you look at your watch and realize the train leaves in 5 minutes but you're still 7 minutes from the station?
