New wheels on my White TT

Picked up these HRE's up last month from a fellow 6speeder. New PS2's are so much better than the Pirelli's that came on the car.

Will get some better picts soon. Was on my way to a BMW M Power event in Half Moon Bay. 70 degrees in November and a great drive on 84, 35 and 92 to HMB.

BTW - love the DCT in the M3.

Yes, they are! It took forever to find 18's and longer to find ones I liked.

- 18 x 12 rears :-)

That gives me some hope to find a nice set of fat 18's, as I have no desire to go to rubberband tires and the harsh ride and marginal handling
that would result.

Thanks Alex - you convinced me to go with the 18's and... you were absolutely correct - haha!

After a year of ownership, I'm still loving the car and have most of the major mods on my list done:

- Europipe ;-)
- 18" wheels
- suspension and alignment
- SSK
- rear spoiler hydraulics replaced (thanks CPO)

and some of the minor stuff as well:
- replace windshield
- iPod hookup (iWireP)
- V1 install

Not much left except for a Flash.... mmm, so tempting.

Thanks for all you help and suggestions, things have worked out great.
