Personally, I think the only wheel that should ever be on a black vehicle is chrome. Nothing sets the black off better than chrome. As for your wheels choices there, I like #3 for winter.

I am not a fan of chrome. I prefer darker, more understated color. The sled's wheels were the brightest I think I have had and they were silver with a clear coat. I kind of what to paint my Mazda wheels dark.

Know what I hate? Those people that turn off their high beams and turn them back on just a second before they pass you. :jon:

Good luck sorting it out. We want pixorez quick ! ! !

I know they are shitty, but cell phone for now more better later when I am not driving illegally with a photocopied temporary tag. Where I like to go gets patrolled hourly.

Someone is violating the rules of the internet.

Where is pic one?

Stopped by the dealer today. Asked about three things:

1) Front license plate bracket - $250

2) AMG Wheels - $1350 each + $200 for TPMS + $400 per tire

3) Bluetooth adapter $495 for the cheap one that doesn't use the cars antenna

What I will do:

1) Searching now

2) For nearly the price of one corner I am getting 4

3) Ebay $80-100

You bassheads will love this. The HK sub is more than I need.

As for the staging it is better than most competitors cars I have heard.

The FR could be improved in particular in the midrange, the transition between mid/tweet and the sub is localizable and playing to high. Considering it looks like 8" covers on the front doors I don't know why. I would LOVE to find out what it does and where so I could doctor it.
