SP n PP
Ivan, i saw the thread b4 abt this...J4C/Seetoh (Snowdog) was promoting the PP (performance pedal)..alot of forumers reply said "good or even better feel than sprint boosters"
so its abt self preference.
if u want quick sprint, both does the job.
if yr car is shared by yr wife or famliy members, maynot be advisable to install (as some forumers decided to re-sell back after realise wife complain pedal too sensitive, so reverse-parking an issue)
but it seems PP can be adjusted, so it may be tune to yr "behaviour" on yr car.
cost wise? PP is abt $7xx n SP i saw some threads offering $250 or less as 2nd hand.

Re: 525i Rims & Tires
Hi there,
The new 525i come with 17" rims, any advice should i upgrade it to 18" rims instead ? Personally i feel it will look better in 18" but i don't hv much knowledge about rims and tires ;p I don't mind if the fuel comsumption is higher but my biggest concern is the ride, will it become very uncomfortable and also affect the handling ?
Pleeease advice,
Thx

Re: 525i Rims & Tires
i m oso on 17" stock rims now, run-flat tires. oso thinking to upsize to 19/20"
so far, my view is 19" looks just great, if u want more asthetic, go for staggered..but 20" staggr is the best...swee-swee!!
J4C Snowdog is offering a 20" Breyton (stagg) now. I will hang on for now, as need to find buyer for current stock rims/tires..if trade in "loo-gi" alot..

Re: 525i Rims & Tires
Oops 19" ? Hmm, too late now cos i hv already asked the SE to upgrade it to 18" ;p Actually both aesthetics and comfort is important for me, but if i hv to pick one, i will go for comfort.

Re: 525i Rims & Tires
Err .. I am not sure what to do with those existing rims and tyres tho, so I just asked the SE in PML to get everything done ;p Hopefully after the upgrade it will not affect the comfort level and handling. Well, I will just try driving for a while and if it's really much better to upgrade to 19 or 20", I might consider upgrading it again lol
