good work sharing the video .. always nice to share lessons learned. i like the look of the blacked out emblem but sheesh ... too much of a PITA for me ... lol. kudos to you!
i love alcantara when it's clean. do you have a maintenance cleaning plan?
the only car i've had with an alcantara wheel (and that i've kept long enough to notice) was my camaro SS1LE. I found that a microfiber with just a very light spritz of water on it and scrubbing the wheel was a good...
I've made some funny trades ... just traded my 2022 Sierra 2500 Diesel AT4 for the ITS. I only tow my car hauler a few times per year and our Yukon does an adequate job there. the yukon is also our main road tripper (glorious). ITS is a great daily and way more fun than a truck, but it...
ITS is so much lighter i'm surprised you didn't take the W. take out the spare tire, add a tune, then go hunt for him again.. lol
a guy at my kid's school has one with plate "HAMR WGN" pretty boss imo.. i would love an E63 wagon or RS6 avant as a 5th car someday, but as much as i love those...
Thanks for chiming in, and I think they look great on your car! I read that winter wheels thread but somehow missed your post.
Good to know about the TPMS/valve stems.
where did you buy the wheels? Thanks!
We love our Yukon (AT4 with 6.2L). Best road tripper we’ve had and the kids love the space and comfort. Super smooth ride which is nice and it helps me appreciate the size/weight of the ITS that much more when I take it out.
ITS isn’t for everyone.
first, on topic. I'm getting some Continental DWS06+ in stock size put onto my car today. 40* and damp roads will be a good time to compare them to the 4Ss which were quite slippery on the way over here.
now to discuss this M3 stuff ... lol
i was all over the M3 boards talking about...
noted on the TPMS and valve stems. saw a guy who put them on his white ASpec and it looks pretty decent .. our stock wheels look good so i may even just do another set in the same color or bronze to mix it up.
if the Conti DWS06+s do well enough on the street I may just stick with them and...
this reminds me of the 718 GT4 folks swapping for a shorter ratio gearbox. i had a GT4 for a while and yeah .. the gears are long ... but i also don't have a fitbit counting how many shifts I make and encouraging me to "increase your activity" .. lol .. would the shorter ratio box be...
Looking for a second set of wheels ... considering the FL5 set because I like OEM fit/finish. i've been looking at aftermarket options and i just haven't seen anything i like. the apex VS-5RS look good.. but of course they look like a carbon copy of the FL5 wheels and twice the price... i'm...
i was just thinking today that what my PWP car needs is some blue exhaust tips to add a little pop. not sure i want to go with a whole new exhaust (i find most turbo'd cars don't benefit much in tone but just get louder and not always better... hopefully milltek is a nice sound though!)... but...
bumping this because it's been a while since it was posted and a lot more folks have their cars.
i find the trunk button still to be an odd feature, but Jason makes a good usage case for it. it remains a very random and unlikely scenario, at least in my life (and i even have young kids!)
i've had numerous that i would generally classify two as more stiff (Camaro SS1LE, 718 GT4) ... the rest have all been light in comparison (F80 M3, '22 Si) and I would definitely consider the Integra to be on the lighter side. The length is something I haven't noticed being super long or short...
a lot of folks painted the big muffler on the F80 M3s .. it was a huge eyesore.
i'm looking for something with the titanium exhaust tips and blued finished edge. i'll keep looking!
absolutely. fun is my main goal. I also like having a very track capable car in the garage. The M3CS was good on track but less fun out there than I’d hoped. when I traded my M3 for the ITS I never really regretted it. In a perfect world I would’ve kept the M3 also. The only car I would’ve...
as much as i love the ITS .. to me, the M3CS felt like on another planet as far as grip and speed. you may have the RWD and perhaps the AWD was a big factor for me. again, doesn't make it fun, but just punching it and having the power go to the ground was insane in that car. i saw them put...
i had a '24 M3CS that I traded in for an ITS. the M3 was way more impressive (speed was other worldly, carbon fiber everywhere ) and those bucket seats were my alltime favorite of any car. you're definitely right ... the M3s are an animal but the ITS is just plain fun! both are awesome cars...
