You will receive the requested item as 3d data. After confirming it, we start to create it. I think the quality is very good. My friend uses them on the circuit and nothing is wrong with them. The painting is also very good.

I will DM you his contact information.

Wow! The wheels go so well with the design of the car. Nice touch!

OEM Style 908

I loved the 21" style 908 enough that I procured a second set for mounting my winter tires.

Makes cleaning a breeze or a rinse I should say ... about $3500 on a vehicle the size of i7 with quality 3-year warrantied ceramic

What I did today to my G70 was give it a nice hand wash and a few spritzes of Xpel ceramic booster. Easy to clean with the Xpel ceramic coat, done last Spring, and now a few minutes of booster application (after dry of course) and it looks like new again.

Nice! For the wheels, which offsets or did you use spacers? Lowering links or module?

You can absolutely install a ceramic coating yourself, $3,500 for one is insane IMO. 95% of the work is in the prep, if your car needs to be polished out to remove swirls etc then I would probably pay $1,500-$2,000. If it doesn't need to be polished though, it just needs a quick one step and then coated.

Quality consumer coatings cost $80-$300 for the coating, application is as easy as waxing a car.

Skw I went with 12mm all around and looks pretty OEM. You could push it to 15mm no problem. If you go spacers route look into future classics. They are hub centric AND bolt to your hub as well. No shimmy at at at high speeds. My Mach Schnell on my M6 at 100mph shook my molars.

Does the mobile guy travel to central NJ (Monmouth County). I'll gladly pay $1k per car and I'll give him 4 to do in 1 shot for that price! I'm serious, PM me his info

New 22's mounted yesterday. Went with 28 & 40 for the offsets, fitment is just about right. Next gotta figure out how to install the lowering links.
