Balance first then ceramic coat. Makes a big difference on wheel cleanliness. Proper solvents easy fix on rebalance down the road post ceramic.

True, if just for the street. But if you're tracking the car, and you're serious about it, it is quite possible to find yourself in a spin at some point. Assuming that nothing is damaged, other than the ego of the driver, you want to have the wheels pointed straight ahead, with the top of the steering wheel at 12 O'Clock position, when the scenery stops moving. Putting a strip of easily seen tape at the top of the steering wheel is fairly standard procedure in serious competition.

because most of us are serious competitors in our cars and coffee Carreras.


seriously, I wouldn’t tape a 150k plus car’s wheel, but I support those that want to put Amazon stickers on theirs.

what do you guys think? Love the M3 but its not the most practical daily but it is so fun. I know ill love the targa just as much.
Just got an X5m myself and love it. Fantastic daily driver with a great interior, a monstrous engine, and phenomenal handling for an SUV. I still prefer driving my 911 when looking for a good time…but the X5 does so many things so well. I would have gone M3 but needed more space for the kiddos.

After nearly six months, clear side markers. Normally this is a day 1 purchase, but the car was delivered in the fall right before heading to the garage for the winter. Now that spring has sprung I’m excited to start some small mods.
