Bobcat,

Thanks for posting that link - I hadn't looked at the Lowenhart's you got and really liked them. I'd thought about getting MHT E-tunes a while back which are somewhat similar, but heard some bad things about quality. Looking forward to your pics.

What drove you to get different size front and rear wheels? Most folks I've seen with 18's have 18" x 8" front and 18" x 9.5" rear, right?

Also - how do you like your S03's? I've got S02's and have been pretty pleased with their performance, but the rears are getting close to ready for replacement (wonder why ) and I'm considering a full set of wheels/tires with the S03's on them OR keeping the stock 17"s with S03's.

GlobeCLK was the guy that convinced me that it would be cool to have 18's in front and 19's in rear. I think it looks great. Do I wish I had 19's all around now that they're on? mmm, yes and no. I "feel" like the 18's do better with potholes and they look great.

So far I really like the S03's. THey look and drive great.

I have not had the time to get my pictures taken yet ... hopefully soon.

Can I ask how much the price was for those BR5's because I don't live to far from Pa (being in MD).

Phil did take care of me. Phil's a good guy and I would recommend him and Autoaddictions. He delivered when he said he would and at a reasonable price.

jamecl, if i remember right didn't you order from someone in Pennsylvania. If so is there anyway you can give me the company's contact info. By the way your ride looks tight! it gives me a good idea of what mine will look like with the BR5's, because my GS is black as well, but without the l-tune.
