What do you think? I know I need a drop and that is next on the list of mods.

Great car all around. How's the ride NOW compared to BEFORE? How are you liking the General Exclaims? Any regrets? Thanks for posting those great pics!

The ride is really not all that different. The General's are a bit noisy on certain surfaces but for me it is not too bad. Bumps in the road do sound a bit gnarly but that is expected. I almost always drive around bumps and holes when it is safe to do so. I decided on the General's based on the many good reviews and the price was right. I figured if I really end up not liking them I can sell them and get something else. I went driving through some canyons today and had a great time with the new wheels. No regrets whatsoever. I love the wheels.

The wheels look nice! Not to rain on your parade.. but you will soon realize the car floats like a boat on the generals.
Your rational for buying them was the same as mine.. |

Love 'em. Look great on SG.
(I really want to see these on a TiAg E92 with sport suspension. Anyone?) Last edited by Isaiah5411; 08-10-2008 at 02:53 PM.. |

Nice. I like those. I guess i didn't realize the XI sits up THAT high. My non-XI coupe has much less of a gap.

very nice. Mine are supposed to arrive the 13th.
I have to admit..I was a little concerned about the look until I saw the xi thing. I am hoping not to have to drop mine on the sports susp. As a daily driver I do not know if it is worth the trade off in ride quality. I will post some pics when they get installed later this week.

Your new wheels look great! I lreally ike the V710's, but I do wish they had more concavity in the rear. I'd buy them in a heartbeat if that was the case. Either way, enjoy your new wheels!
