Per my previous post - RIMS and TIRES where installed today. I am VERY glad that I went with the 45 series as it looks great and the ride is better if not the same as my 18".

Did not have the BMC - had stock paper Porsche. Regardless of performance, the sound is so incredible that if your on the fence between this and BMC - it should be a no brainier (unless you like the typical whine from under the hood).

+ Renntech Dead pedal: Why the hell is this thing not OEM from Porsche?? It looks just like the pedals and saves the carpet. A bit of a pain to install but you can shove the tab under the rocker panel without having to remove the panel itself. Purchased from Powertech in Rockaway NJ, installed by me.

There are tabs for drilling if you want to but I did not. The back of the pedal has 2-3 strips of
3m double sided molding tape. I used the tape only and have had no issues (been about 5 months since install). To install i took the interior rocker molding trim off, the hood release (1 clip) and then pulled on the kick panel just enough to slide the big dead pedal tab underneath it. I cleaned the vinyl foot rest with the included alcohol pad which really allowed for good adhesion. Overall, the hardest part is pulling back the kick panel - the plastic is very tough and your fingers will be hurting for sure. It is worth the effort as beyond looks, it saves your carpet and really offers a tangible place to plant your foot in hard turns.

thanks for your time
I could give you my email back in a PM as well if that works
thanks much
