Funny you say that because replacing the airbag is what I was told the entire time and when it came to picking up the paperwork after it was done, it just said "module". :facepalm

Funny you say that as your post is why I made my comment.

Lots of funny going on in here.

Probably just the lighting and tinted windows. It's still red I promise. ;)

18x9 square rear wheels set up. This was my old summer set that had a wheel get cracked in half when I got hit this summer. Bought a new wheel and had it paint matched gunmetal and just decided to keep as winters with the 225 setup. Even in winter gotta be flush ;)

Sign say This space reserved for CWMG Chicago parking only.

LOL, gotcha. do you have an issue with theft in that garage? doesn't look like a place you want to leave stuff.

225's on 9" wheels? dang, they look too stretched on 8's. :)

Definitely worried about that. Listened yesterday, didn't hear it. Will keep an ear out, maybe try to dig back around when I have more time.

Almost swapped for cinnamon once but decided against it. If they made Natural Brown in M3 seats there would be some in this one no matter the cost.

Nah, only about 8 people park down there and the rest of the spots are the building owners "toys". The owners nephew has a 335i he parks down there and is always working on so we both leave some stuff there. Tbh aside from the wheels there isn't anything of value up there other than some wax and microfibers and odd tools.

The tires fit fine, Blizzaks run a touch wide I think anyways. I did the same setup last winter and it was good. Extra weight of the rims helps keep the tires planted. ;)
