I think bluetooth could be passed but the sports shift paddles are hard to give up.

Gosh, just know that my car won't be delivered until 20 Dec. That is a very long wait consider I ordered on July.

F: 245/35/20 8.5J x 20 (needs 11mm spacers)
R: 275/30/20 10J x 20 (no spacers needed)

Running Bridgestone S001, wanted Pilot Sport but they were out of stock, so I decide may be I can try something new.

How do you like the S001? Are they noisy?

Debating if I want to lower the car with RD sport springs.
After swapping over to the 20s, Comfort has now became Normal and so on.

I am a bit worried that, if I do swap the springs, I will lose the comfort side of this beauty. Plus, I don't think the mothers and Mrs will be too happy about that.

If they want comfort, get them an Alphard instead

I am going for P Zero Hero 20" on mine. Maybe once I get my car, we can sit in each other's car and compare noise and comfort

That's what I have. If I am the passenger, I ride in my Vellfire. But if I am the driver, I take my C55....... Hopefully, 550i soon.

I had those on my S4, although they said the treadwear is 240, but my S4 ate thru them like I was on AD07. They only lasted 9 months.

Fingercrossed that I will have better luck with these S001. If not, I might have to go back to Pilot Sports.

I used to be in the same situation as you. But the Elgrand was giving me too much headache and I had to sell it. Looking into getting a Vellfire too. Love that purple color.

BTW, the C55 is a monster!! Absolutly love that car.
