MRR GF7 Wheels Installed
Just had these put on, and I'm incredibly happy with how they look. I was a little hesitant to go with a set of completely black wheels, but I think they work really well.

[QUOTE=yousefnjr;19723690]Matches the car well with the other black accents and that fantastic paint lookin good[/QUOTE
Thanks, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks so. Front: 18x8 et35 Rear: 18x9 et23 I wanted to keep with 18" wheels (roads suck in Indiana, lots of potholes,) but u wanted to bring the wheel edges out just a little further, so I went with 7mm less offset than stock. I think they are just right now, and when I do a little drop with coilovers, there won't be any risk of running. Thanks! Crazy how much of a difference going to an all black wheel can make.

yep that's right, when you drop it a little, neg camber will increase so they will tuck in even more. I was surprised how much my wheels disappeared when I dropped mine. Ive been waiting for you to put a drop on your coupe! Have you decided on a coilover yet?

Additionally, I also have a couple of other hobbies/money pits that vie for the attention of surplus income. Photography and my aquarium are both rewarding, but definitely not cheap. As far as the specific coilovers, I'm fairly certain I'm going with an adjustable set with Swift springs and camber plates made by Status Gruppe Tuning. After the positive experience I had with their headers, as well as tons of awesome reviews from the E46 M3 crowd, I think they'll work out nicely. Here is the link to the set I'm looking at: https://www.statusgruppe.com/collect...s-coilover-kit

This video shows a quarter for scale. It was hard to maintain the water parameters in such a small aquarium. Sorry, didn't mean to jack the thread. Salty

Your tank looks awesome, aquascaping like that is always interesting to look at. I can imagine it would be difficult keeping it steady with that small of size, bigger is definitely easier. Except for when one of my two canister filters dies, like happened yesterday.

A few more pics. Still just from my phone, though. I'll be doing a proper shoot again here soon.

Thanks on the aquarium. So sorry your filter died. It was constant work keeping the small one going. Lots of water changes.
Wheels and new tires look nice. I think the Z4M looks equally good on 18s and 19s. Do recall the size of your PSS tires? How much of a drop are you planning? Salty

I think our cars look better with 19s, but I don't want to go to a lower profile tire with how the roads are here in Indy. I destroyed a set of 19s on a car years back from all the potholes. I'm running nearly stock size tires, 225/45 front and 265/40 rear. As far as the drop, I don't really want to lower more than 1/2" or so. I want the coilovers more for improved driving than for looks.
