I have a set of 225/40/18 255/35/18 pilot super sports on my stock rims i am going to move over. They are pretty good and show little wear from the 6 months of driving I got in. However they are not as sticky as an extreme summer tire such as the re-11, advan neovas, etc.

Yup use to be part of the forums and attended a few meets. Had the huge front lip to go along with the bronze wheels but MoT destroyed that and denied they did it. (long story)

When is there a meet for the 1er's in GTA? I've never been to one and it seems to always be deferred.

So your in Thornhill? I'm not that far away in North York.

Yeah, I haven't been to a meet with the 1 crew before. Really excited for my first one lol. I always attended the La Paloma meets on Wednesday nights. It was hard to be there, when tm3 always overshadowed tm6 doubling their numbers to ours. It was cool though. Then there was the AA meets at finch and don mills. Those were pretty big..

Someone should really start a meet thread or something, to gauge interest for attendance before the white badstuff starts falling lol.

I'm all up for a quick meet, even though I have my winters on. Just wanted to see some faces in the 1er community.

Yeah I stopped going to La Paloma on Wednesdays, some guy in a 240sx "tried" to do a burnout a couple years back so I stopped going, and TM3 was always the big attendance with barely support from TM6. Even worse I was the only Speed6 majority of the times at meets.

Yes starting to see more Speed6's out now after I left the community. It was such a rare treat to spot one when I had it last and would give the other drive a thumbs up. One weird encounter was when I gave a thumbs up to a red Speed6 going the opposite direction. Turned out to be an old granny driving that manual only beast and she looked back at me weird.

Why not get it repainted instead?

That may be a bit extreme... I was thinking more along the lines of blue, light green, or gold.

Don't know how I missed this!

We've pretty much done all of those.

Our Midnight Blue is stunning (dark metallic blue), we've done a set in what look like Highlighter Yellow (very very bright and eye catching), and of course gold (which looks classy and nice).

What color did you decide? I hope its gold! I've been trying to find a E82 AW With Goldies on for a while now.

I originally fell in love with STis AW & Gold combo. Thinking about running the same with some V710's in Gold.
