Keep in mind that the OEM ones will have better build quality. __________________ 97 Jet Black 318ti Sport. Not so stock anymore!....

Guess I'll have to take them to PowederX in TN to get them powdercoated...I had a set of black painted and the damn clear came off them. Also, can anyone suggest tires? I think I'm gonna go with a set of 215-45-17. This gonna be ok? Would you go taller, wider? __________________ Steffen, they are F's not V's.
