So, I picked up a set of RE-050A Pole Position along with some rims from Fast Scooter a couple of weeks ago and finally got my car back from the dealership (something I mentioned in another thread), but anyway, finally got around to taking some photos this morning.

Yeah man I hear ya...the roads here in the DC area are terrible but I ride slammed all the time just gotta be careful and alert...If I can make a suggestion I would get the H&R springs and just use the stock DRC with the it will put the car down a bit but not to much and will look great...


BTW you can just call me Drew :asian:

I'm running the same Pole Positions on Sportec Mono 10's. I've only got about 5K on them, but I think they're providing good performance at a reasonable price. Wear looks pretty good so far, too. How are you liking yours?

those sportecs looks wonderful. I've only been running these pole position for a few days now and I have to say that jumping from 18s to 20s hasn't resulted in a much rougher or noisier ride as many have cautioned... Very good so far!

I'm also on 20's (255 tire width). Big improvement in the looks department. As Drew commented, the roads in the DC area are pretty poor. I have to drive pretty gingerly. Every crack or imperfection in the road is evident.

ya, thankfully, down here in the OC, roads tend to be on the smoother side and in my daily drives hither and tither it seems okay but I did drive on a small rough patch the other day on a section of road which is being repaved and man.... I will be driving very carefully in the future! Heh. I'm on the same fitment as you I would wager, 255/35R20.

On the way back from breakfast with a friend this morning, decided to snap some more photos, I really need to find the time to take some nicer photos like drew and his m3 buddy, but they'll do for now:

you know, looking at the photos of my car with the oem rims, they are very nice, obviously i am digging the new look but that's to take nothing away from the oem which has a very clean and elegant look.
