The 128i is the only car BMW makes at this point that I want, and it's just awesome-- the LAST of traditional BMWs. Lightweight 17s with real (non runflat, high quality) tires, DISA, and a DISA enabling tune, and it's easily the best non M car BMW has ever made for my wants. Better than the M cars in a lot of ways as well.
SS headers are an awesome, too, if you're willing to go off stock.  |
Thanks, man. I'm excited to join the club. My current and previous car had no mods, so I felt as if I was standing on the sidelines, but with this car I'm getting into the game.
I thought about going with 17s, but I admittedly decided to go with 18s as a nod to aesthetics. That said, the 18" wheels and tires I'm adding will weigh 6.75 lbs. less at each corner than the stock 17x7" wheels with lousy 205/50-17 RFTs, so it's all upside.
Given my goals for this car, I doubt I'll make any engine mods, but I'm still gathering info out of curiosity.
