Anyone use RX65i here? Please share.
I used my X50 for several years but it seems to be useless for the new redflex radar. I am considering RX65i, anyone share?

I see you have the 3D front lip, roof spoiler and rear boot spoiler. Looking sick bro.
3D front lip definitely from Z shop. The roof spoiler also 3D? Rear boot spoiler from where? Space gray really looks sparking clean. Mine only last a few hour after washing. After rain it looks like Bambi.

ICIC
The rear looks perfect flush and drop, the front looks a little sunk in - why is that, or just the picture? I tried putting the rear rims on the front (after I repaired the scratch) and the inside just scratches the susp./arm! But i compare with OE and the diff is 5mm ... so the OE for 19/20 inch rim must be very very close already.. just something (not very) interesting A radar that works sometimes and not work sometimes is as good as .. well u know ... |

great car! The only thing you need is a 5mm or 8mm spacer on the front to make it prefect!
BTW, my car remind me that the Key battery is low and need to be replace... it only last less than a year??? Anyone get the key battery changed already?

You guys have good eyes. True the Forgestar F10 has less aggressive offset than the Forgestar F14. But it's a good thing. I actually want mine less aggressive, they curb all the time.

The F14s 9F and 10.5R are really a bit too aggressive for Hong Kong conditions......

The rear boot spoiler is M-tech like yours, I just ordered it online and the quality is not as good. Not much choice now, I don't like the performance trunk lip spoiler, so I go for M-tech. Will def. change to another one, when there's nicer one come up. Yes, I like space gray, really no need to clean the car as much as your black lol. This color flow the shadow line of F10 v. good... Quote:
You've good eye grim. Before I raised up the front, it's more serious. It's a bit better now, maybe as RC said, F10 offset is not as aggressive as F14. But it's good, at least I haven't curb my rims yet. I will try to do alignment v. soon and see if this would help.. As for radar, really want to get one. Back to topic, anyone can comment V1 vs RX65i? Which one to go and where? Quote:
Thanks RR80. But I don't really like spacer, maybe I'm bias. I'm satisfy as is now. Are you serious? Battery gone less than a year? That's sound impossible, unless your kids press it as playstation controllers. Better leave the key to BMW, but don't leave your car there, as they will keep it at least a week..

That's right. The tyres rub but rims are protected

Never curb your rims? You have good skill bro. May be your rims are also protected by the fatty tires. But you never wanna try intentionally. Battery change should be easy. I tried open the key fob already. Not so tough.

Maybe you are gentle with parking, with enough force you can still scratch any tire-over-rim protection ..
ICIC I wish my eibach550 on 528 will get about that drop for rear and front raised 1.5cm from normal drop.. fingers crossed |
