That does look good. I absolutely hate the blue that BMW uses on their calipers. After their terrible shade of blue, I couldn't look at blue calipers again... until these. These are nice!!!

I'm with you, man...
I might flip my front michelin on the stocks for now...date night last night and we couldn't take the V because I was afraid of how badly the nylon and steel under were separating...didn't want to risk highway speed.
I just listed them on wheelflip and offer up along with the advan from the S2000...I ain't bout that double wheel for every vehicle life anymore. I have 4 cars and 32 rims
Good looking OEM is my new thing...

Rear of OEM wheels have new PSS already so I would spend the bucks on matching PSS for the 19's...
or go with reasonably cheap Sumitomo HTR Z3's for the 20's like I did last time...
(mis)Alignment on a heavy powerful vehicle is a tire fuckin killer...

Put Advans back on and sell the OEM wheels. Be baller. Advans > Stockers. Advans have to be easier to clean than stock wheels. Plus they hide brake dust better.

But selling the Advans means that, in 4 months, he can go buy an nearly identical set but just slightly different and get right back to where he is today, but with more headaches and extra cost.

List them both! If you get more than what you want for either set, take it.

OEs are fairly light and forged

I like the contrast of the silver on the yellow...the combo works well...
plus, oem won't sell for much, advan will.
and I don't believe in selling the original wheels off a car so if I were only selling one set, it can't be the oems.

so it would just be a thread name change then because content would remain the same.
Brother, couldn't have gone to a better family...really really love who bought it...Father/Son combo...Daddy got the white Esco and Black V Coupe...son has black wagon...
they're basically sponsored by rotiform to do some fun photoshoots together and do cars and coffee together...Good shit...I love that it's a part of a family affair.
In addition, the Dad that has the 950hp whipple V has about $2K in parts in the garage ready to be slapped on the Wagon. He's like...to start off he'll be at 680 to the wheels
in about a month...then a proper detail and paint correction and wheels...stance was already on point and he loves the orange calipers...he has a cool fixie bike he's going to
put on a bike rack on top that's black and he's going to make the accents orange.
Anyway...it was bittersweet...but fuck it...
