I had my original 135s on my white '05 convertible redone in a Subraru WRX gunmetal grey. They looked really nice when clean, and just a little matte when covered in brake dust. There are probably some pics of my car in previous posts.

That's good to know since I didn't order the spacers yet. I have YCW coilovers coming, but I highly doubt I will go much lower than where stock sits. I like how stock sits, and I don't want to be worrying about scraping on everything by being too low on ride height. I mean maybe 1/4inch lower.
New Michelin PSS's in stock size as well going on after i get the wheels back from powdercoating.
Do you think 12mm (they don't look to have 12.5mm) all around would be OK if I was just a little lower than stock ride height?
I think that'll be perfect. The 10-12mm spacers on BMWs are a bit odd fitting due to the depth of the hub lip, so it's easy to get the seating off a bit. Just be sure to take your time with tightening the lugs. Go in a star pattern and move in small waves. Hand tight, a little tighter, a little more, then full torque.
OK guys I just dropped the wheels off, and picked a color called P5 Glimmer made by Tiger powder.
Here's the chart
They had the Kingsport Grey as well, but I didn't like how dark it got in the shadows/evening. (looks awesome in direct sun) The P5 Glimmer seemed to hold its shade of color a little better and wasn't as dark overall. I was really torn between the gunmetal, P14, and the P5.
I'm hoping the P5 glimmer is the right choice. LOL
What do you guys think?
Oh my car is identical to ecrabb in this thread I think post 82 shows his car with Kingsport grey.
