Newbie F50 from Socal
What's up VSC!? I've been a VIP fan for a while, so I decided to switch platforms a few months ago & it took me that long to actual find the one I wanted. I just got my 2005 Q45 over the weekend & I can't be more excited. It took a while going through some crappy ones, including crappy salesmen.
No decent pics yet, but I did take one cellphone pic once I got it home.
Hold the fail comments on the wheels. Unfortunately, it didn't come with stock wheels & previous owner probably thought that these ones actually looked good. To make it even worse, no key for the wheel locks. :pat:
So I'm hoping to get a suspension setup pretty soon, so any inputs, especially from fellow F50 owners is much appreciated.
Here's the new toy.
... and the soon to be sold :sad: - wish I could keep them both.

Just need to decide on the suspension, so that I can make them fit. :biggthumpup:

I ended up selling the wheels to a buddy of mine. I have another project planned. Probably going a tad more aggressive on specs.

Alright, been sooo lazy updating. Past few months is pretty much just waiting on parts anyway.
Chickened out & scrapped the idea of going too aggressive. Decided to keep my fenders clean & stock (just rolled the rears).
Starting to get somewhere. Props to OJAY for the pics (from BP VIP meet last Sunday).

Really depends on what you're going for I guess. I'm planning to add a kit. 20s give me more clearance, yet still appear low at my drive height since the wheel flange will still be very close to the fenders. 19s if you want to street sweep=)
