Congrats! Great looking F22, and that's the best looking Z4 I've ever seen!

Thanks! KW Var2 dropped just right for the VMR wheels. Really liked the color combo of red and grey. The F22 has the coral interior. Was glad to find that!

New shoes and matt black grill. A few other cosmetic mods in the works. Taking it easy with this one I think. We shall see. My wife has caught the bug finally.

Looking back at my cars it seems I have a thing for CSL style wheels.

thanks!

Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S 225/40/18 And 255/35/18 staggered.
Avant Garde M359 18x8.5 +35mm And 18x9.5 +45mm with black lugs and BMW center caps.

No spacers. Rears have a smidge of poke and front are flush. I really liked how that turned out. Never any rubbing with those tires and wheel combo. Th PS4S run a bit narrow. Stock ride height.

Eventually sold the car for an M2.

I have a commitment problem mixed with being a little bit on the spectrum of compulsive modding. I did always aim for an OEM+.

My wife was not happy I sold the 228. But M2… that one scared her periodically.
