As for the tires. I had them on my E36. They're long lasting and are above average in the rain. On the downside, and really what was most important to me, dry traction was poor and the sidewalls were very weak. |

A set of 18" yeah, but I don't really plan on buying an expensive set of wheels just to run the track.

The stickers are mandatory in my mind. I will probably swap out the center cap for the flat black plain one so I like the Volk and RAYS decals.

We're all friends here right? So being I honest I think that Volk wheels are cheap and would NEVER have them on anything other than some rice rocket. Just my .02
Gorgeous car though.

My .02 are that you have no idea about the quality of Volk wheels, and I guess any set of wheels that don't cost at least $4000 a set are cheap. I will take my $3000 set of wheels that are one piece forged, lighter, and just as strong as your $6000 set of 3 piece HRE or 360Forged wheels. Just the fact that you call other cars rice rockets bothers me. You sound like the kind of person that gives BMW owners a snobby Jeremy Clarkson "cocks" impression. Just my opinion though. We are all friends here.

I posted the wheel sizes earlier. I think they are about the perfect width and offset. I you spent the money on the EDC, then I would just keep the OEM setup. I knew I wanted coilovers, so I didn't waste time with the those options.
