Yes sir, I need to get it all washed up
A few more shots--- disregard the rotor color thats just after a wash LOL. Specs are in the above post,
Looking good @vic55 !
Nice to see something on a Plaid besides Signature wheels. Fitment is on point. Still no rubbing?

Yeah zero issues here and they are actually 1mm inward front and rear vs my spacer setup with the OEM.
Looks great. Thanks for posting the wheel specs with the offsets. Some here think that posting such information is a violation of ultra classified info. I've ordered wheels from Forgestar with slightly less aggressive offsets. I was kind of blind going in so your info is super helpful.
Mr Vic (I said Wick in my head lol), could you please give us a pic of those fat tires from behind the vehicle with the camera placed almost on the floor and at a distance where both back tires would fit the frame?not bad concavity for a 10.5
Thank you and sorry about your kneesLOL ask and I shall deliver but my knees hurt now
Kind of a shitty pic

BEAUTIFUL! Cant wait to get mine in May!!!As the title says it--- I figured Id post here with some pics of course. I have never been an EV owner and while I have driven many a Model S and Model 3 variants, my heart has always been with ICE cars and their sounds they make as one accelerates and decelerates. But, the Plaid piqued my interest and I thought if I can get one right away Ill do it. I got lucky and found one on the ground in Santa Barbara and had it shipped down but when it came to delivery; the car had paint inclusions and we (Tesla Reps and myself) decided against delivery. The regional manager was able to find me this car a few hours later, unspoken for- and the rest is history (2021 Plaid MSM with Black on Carbon guts).
I come from owning many cars that are strong in performance (12 AMG's, 11 M's, 3 R8's, 2 F cars, Lambo, GTR, 9 Porsche's, NSX, etc) most with brilliant sound to match the rpms but this Plaid is the fastest car Ive ever owned- modded or not. So now Ill just drive it, learn the nuances, and remain safe all the same. I actually am getting used to the yoke wheel about 120 miles in but its still a bit odd with full U turn maneuvers.
I did do some minor adjustments out of personal preferences:
Tint 35% Ceramic
Ceramic Coating
N2itive Plaid Lowering Links (.8 inch drop front 1 inch drop rear)

Very nice @vic55 ! Nice to see another face from BimmerPost. My incoming Plaid will be my first EV as well.
What do you guys think of this from RPM Tesla (local to me so no core exchange around 2k all in)
I dont mind the yoke but do like a full wheel.
