Nice - awesome tire. That's what I had (on the same stock 20" wheels as you) originally, but I replaced them with Yoko Parada Spec-X's when the time came. Loved the Duelers, but I really needed an all-season set up since I only run one set of wheels and tires year-round. Congrats on the new set up once again - looks great!

When I get my 20's on I'm pretty sure I'm going with the Conti Extreme Contact DWS's. Thoughts on those vs the Bridgestones for all-weather? I thought about running 2 sets of wheels, but think I'm gonna sell off my 19" 5 arms since winters here are not "major" most of the time, as I don't live way up in the mountains and have to drive them on a daily basis.

If anyone is interested in jumping up to the 19's from the 18's let me know. They are OEM and I'll prob sell them for 20% less than the discount price you can get them for on genuineaudiparts.com
[ 1 ] FRONT SUSPENSION / WHEELS / WHEELS / Wheel, alloy
wheel, alloy 19", 5 spoke, type 1
MSRP $500.00
Online Price $434.00
So I'd take around 20% under the $434, so lets say $345 each wheel. Excellent condition.
Let me know if interested.

I'm sorry but I can't see the wheels. My eye is distracted by the Pontiac-esque plastic around the wheel wells. I hate those things, but that is just me, if you like it then great. To me it just spoils the clean, form follows function design I love of German cars.
