Just got my Vossen CV4's installed

Heavy, but they certainly look good with the sparkling graphite.

My car is noticeably slower with 19's over my 18's.

Its a shame but its a lesson for the F80 M3 when it comes out. Bigger rims=slower

Shame though since my 19's look fantastic

I was thinking of putting my stock 18s back on as well. Probably get a smoother ride too

For a street car, does it really matter? Use 17's or 18's for the fun stuff off road.

If you never change then you never know.

If you change the car feels faster, smoother and more aggressive.

It drives better on 18's too.

I'm not sure of an Edmonton shop, but Tunerworks in Calgary is doing this, they had one in the shop when I picked up my new wheels.

Here they are, photos courtesy of the shop in Calgary - Tunerworks. Bobby and the guys did a great job, even coded my LCIs.
