BMW Montego 335(E92) / Accuair / Vossen CV5 / Carbon Fiber

So I like to keep updated pics, I know some people like the last updated pics I put up. So for those wanting more here ya go. Keep a look out on Vossens website as more should be up soon.
One thing I don't like about my car...is no matter how much I adjust my rear coils they will never sit even. Trust me I've tried for like 3 days and I can't get both sides to sit the same. It bothers me b/c one side tucks better then the other.
Special shout out to:

Mike and the guys at Vossen for the awesome wheels. They look good and I think they keep the sporty/luxury look going with the bmw. The wheels are 20x9(+20)/10.5(+27) and I'm running 225/35 and 255/30 tires. (yes these tires are taller then factory and recommended tires, but it something I had to sacrifice in order to run stretch tires and have rubber)

Reno and Derek at Accuair for helping me get my AccuAir Stage 2 kit. I do have the AccuAir Elevel system. And I'm looking at getting the iLevel system also.

Zack at Universal Air Suspension for helping me with my Air Bags

now the pics.

this all I have for now....stay tuned for more!!!!











and make sure you subscribe b/c I still have a few boxes that need to be opened......

Generally not a fan of the car sitting that low, but I presume that's just for the pictures. Looks like you've done top notch work on the car. Very nice.

Nice car, but I'm not a fan of the wheels or the stance.

what you mean by stance?? not enough...to much? Feel free to comment. I'm always up for opinions. I'm looking into wheels for the future...so I'm always looking for suggestions.

Whoa, very aggressive. I'd be afraid to drive with that setup, but it looks clean. Nice work.

Nice E92. I'm also a fan of five-spoke wheels in general. Those Vossens look a lot like the SSR SP1s I run on my S2000. The difference is that the Vossens have that nice concave look to them.

Nice job!

This is one of the shots I found from Wekfest Houston this past weekend, you can see the splitters and the trunk (kinda)

Yes I have thought about HRE....but then I think about HRE prices and I start thinking other things. I love my Volks and I've been thinking to get them refinished since I cant sell them. But I've had thought of other wheels, Works, SSR, D2Forged, and ForgedLine. But I can't do that much until I sale the Volks
