Looks good!

Have does that rim/tire combo feel on the "wonderful" roads up here?

I'm debating 18" or 19" wheels.

to be honest, I was really worried about 19"...but MAN...night and day difference without the runflats...i feel like i actually have a spine after I hit bumps.

*you will see me swerving around every-single small pot hole and sewer. I swear I am anal about keeping these puppies un-bent, un-cracked, un-ruined by boston's so called "roadworks"

I am happy with 19".

That's nice. I like the wheels with the tinted windows.

What % tint is that? is it MA legal?
btw, does the tint help the A/C keep your black car cool at all?

Thanks man. No not legal in MA...haha. I had 20% (meter read 16%) all around but got pulled over for them last year. I switched the fronts to 30% (meter reads 26%)...the back rear windows and rear windshield are still 20%. I plan on going back to 20% this summer. Yes I would definitely say it helps keep it cool. Even more so with the darker tint

Is the legal limit in MA 35%, and in a 135, the factory tint will add to the darkness of the aftermarket, perhaps why the meter was reading darker #s.

still looks awesome tho
