22" 215 Reps - Mounted w/ pics

Ok,

Finally had time to wash the X and take a better picture.

Initial thoughts?

Ride is much better than stock. I hate RFT's. My 06 330i and 08 535i both had them and it made the ride horrible. Going away from RFT's is so much better IMHO.

Steering has become much easier, less effort is needed to maneuver. Don't ask me if it has to do with the weights of the rims. I can comment on the weight of the OEM's with RFT's and they were damn heavy.

So my 215's wrapped in Falkens have made me happy so far. But I'm not quite done. 10mm spacers are in and I'm going to order the extended flares to finish her off. Might paint the door accent to match the body color.

The wheels were bought from the eBay vendor Detail King and they provided great service and I ordered them Friday and popped open the box Monday.
