So, do you know the offsets of the Vorsteiner VS-130 21x9 and 21x11 wheels, or do Vorsteiner keep it a secret?

As for the Michelin PSS they are hands down the best all around tire I've had on this car since I first bought it. The OEM Michelin runflats were no good even though I drove on them less than a week before the BBS LMRs went on the car. As for the Hankook tires they are acceptable for the price, but I'll probably never buy another set again unless I can get the Hankook RS3. The Michelin PSS do very well in the rain. They are extremely quiet, the ride is SMOOTHER than the 20" BBS LMR w/ Hankook tires. Very grippy when pushed, and give a lot of confidence during aggressive driving. I highly recommend them. Thanks Lui, I really want to see your car soon, really lol. Its always a pleasure seeing you at the Attic and your car is coming along quite nicely Paul. Quote:
![]() As for the next mods on the list, the truth is...I may actually just move onto building something new for 2012. There are a few things I want to do to improve performance and handling, but at this time there really is no way to get to the 400+ wheel hp I had originally planned. The N55 in its current state is a burnout for the F10 Quote:

Your car and Mao's is really making me want to get an F10 next year. Yours is the best black F10's on here and his is the best white one.
How is the N55 in the F10 with the JB4 compared to a 335? I'm having a tuff time deciding between the 535 or 550. My Cobb tuned N54 335 is plenty fast enough for me but wondering how the N55 feels in the bigger F10. Alan

The F10 535 weighs roughly 4080lbs. To the wheels with my current power mods I've made 312HP and 355TQ.
So with a conservative 15% drivetrain loss the N55 in its current trim on my F10 makes 367HP and 417TQ at the engine.

+1 ... same same ... as I'm not a huge fan on a fair portion of the BBS range. I thought your original 5 spoke gunmetal Vorsteiner rims were perfect for this car and made it so unique. Evrything else looks sweeeeet!
