[QUOTE="IanDaddy, post: 486015, member: 18207"] RM400 is good deal. I will borrow a set of 16" from a friend who has upgraded to 18" on his E46 then send my 17" for refurbishment. No problem, fix the temp wheels and remove the tyres from the rims, can get that done for free at by buddy's shop. Balancing and Alignment gotta pay lah later. Anyway, I am seriously thinking about downsizing from 225/45/R17 to 205/55/R16 if it improve acceleration/deceleration and consumption. I will have a chance to find out the weight difference between the 2 sets of wheels soon. Trying to reduce unsprung weight on the 4 corners. I read in Performance BMW mag that in Europe, those guys are downsizing. Appreciate advice fro Sifu here. Thanks [/QUOTE]
