No... Just to poison you. The new Morr (Lascter version) is more suitable for your car. You can choose from 19" to 22".

No.... MS8 step lip (lacster edition) 20" should be your way to go. Otherwise how could you qualify as wheel whore?

Please let us know what color and texture you ordered for your F14.

Also how much is your db v511?

I got the Advan Sport which is suppose to be Yokohama's flagship and best tire. But I found it harsh and noisy. Hope your db is better. From the website is said the DB is the quietest amongst their tires.

Hmm.. price has gone up a bit.

You are talking about texture that I mentioned, right? Yup, they have gloss, matte, textured, machined and etc.

Matte black. You are going hardcore, bro. Congrats.
