The tire wear is not too good but as i work in a garage i can easily swap the tires from side to side so that i still use up all of the tire. I Am considering putting the adjusters in though as only having about four inches of a 235 rear tire touching the road does'nt realy do much for the hanling lol.

I think you need quite a few parts to complete the rear disk swap so it would be handy to find someone breaking one realy, il just wait an see what comes along, thats the way i have been working on the car since i got it.

About the dash, yea i would absolutley love a black dash, center console, carpet and headliner but its finding them and having the time to swap a dash as i cant imagine it would be any kind of ten minuite job.

Thanks for all the kind words, im glad i sighned up here you all seem like a real freinly bunch.

Thanks Sam.

How big is the lip on those 18" rims on the tourer? 2" ?
Im going to buy some similar in gunmetal og gloss black...
whats the size on the wheels ? 225/40/R18 ?
Lovin those rims...
Lowering springs, M-tech styling, M3 mirrors and projector headlights with eye lids on the white touring would make it _baaad_ ! o,O me want!
