You have about $4500 in rims right there man. They look great, I have had my eye on them since I owned my E90 335. I was hoping I would be the first to put them on a Type-S 
Im glad you put them on because now I know those are the ones im getting. But I think I might go with a Gold center.

I want to know if you have rubbing issue. coz I have my new rim: 18"8.5" 41offset, with nitto neogen 245/40/18. I rub a lot. I lower for H&R sport spring, 1.4F 1.3R. Do you have any comment for me?

I don't rub at all. With your wheel specs, you shouldn't have any rubbing problem. Try to check if you are rubbing against the fender tabs? Either the ones close to the top of wheel or where fender and bumper bolts together. You should be able just bend the tabs with your finger or use a dremel to trim where the fender and bumper bolts together a little.

I don't think I can tell you how much I paid for it exactly because it's a long story, but I got it for really really good deal because it was supposedly be a partial sponsorship deal. However, I never showcase the rims for them because of the switch of ownership and I had to wait long time for it. They just sell me the wheel for very low price to compensate all the trouble I had to go through.

THanks for the great comments everyone.
I will have the exhaust clips up in couple days. The exhaust is also going to be for sale sometime next week, unfortunately. Just came back from vacation and spent a lot more money than planned, so I will need to sell few parts to pay off my bills.

i would buy it from you but i spent to much $ on my current exhaust.
i got the xlr8 exhaust and added a couple resonators to get rid of the drone and quiet it down a little. i love the sound of it now but the tips are ugly and look stock. ppl were looking at it at a meet and they were like wtf is wrong with his stock exhaust... it sticks out kinda far for stock.... im like wtf there not stock man.

For now, exhaust is the only thing I can live without. I love the sound and the power, but I rather live debt free. I can always get another custom exhaust if I have money later.
Also, the XLR8 jpipe and test pipe will be on sale, too.

HAHAHA, I was going to get XLR8, but because of the drone I went with custom.

I am thinking about $800 and the exhaust is only 3 months old. The video clips will be up this weekend.

Even without the labor, the parts have already cost me ~$1000. It sounds and looks great, but I guess custom always cost more.
Also, I just shot the videos, so I will post them tonight or tomorrow.
