I'm located in Canada....looking for a set of 20" staggered rims that would fit a 2012 X5 and are in decent shape.

Signed up for my first autocross!
I'm stoked about my first autocross! I signed up for the BMW CCA autocross the local chapter is having next month.
Searching through various autocrossing tips etc. I was surprised (but not unhappy) to learn about work assignments - I thought its like go there and start driving like a gokarting place :). Sounds like there's a lot more to it than that.
One apprehension I have is - and I had the same problem when I did motorcycle MSF training - how do you find which cones to go between, so quickly?? I mean all those cones out there they all look the same, how do you know which one is the course? Anyone face this, how did you get over this newbie apprehension? :)
Luckily I already have an approved helmet that I use with my motorcycle - sounds like I'm good to go! I'm contemplating getting a dash cam.

How can I make my exhaust a bit louder?
2010 135i dct n55 (234 kW at wheel)
So here is my mod list
gruppeM intake
Wagner ic
Bms dp
Eisenmann quad
Cobb v3 ,stage 2 agg
I got my ic and downpipe installed first couple month ago
It was loud and when I changing gear at high rev, the "bang" was very noticeable and loud, and I got my intake and exhaust installed after couple weeks later, it was 100% quieter than the stock exhaust, I thought it needs some miles to burn in, now I done about 2000 miles,it does changed a little bit, but still not as loud as stock , especially at high rev, is there anything to make it louder? Will maddad mid pipe helps? And what wheel hp usually stage 2 n55 runs? I am thinking to try jb4, will it be more performance gain?

FS: 5 Bosch Coils
I have for sale 5 Bosch coils, part #12137594937. I purchased them since I was having misfires, but I had an SES light come up and after 7 days of my car in the shop, they replaced all 6 coils and 3 plugs under my CPO. I obviously no longer need these. I just bought them three weeks ago from OEMbimmerparts. I will sell all 5 for $175. We can meet in south burbs or Chicago.

Supersprint F1 Race (rear section only)
Hey everyone!
For sale is the exhaust off of my car. Anyone that knows SuperSprint exhaust systems knows they are some of the best in the world. This is their F1 Race system (rear section only) and is a bolt-on part, meaning no cutting or welding required. This exhaust also saves about 20-25lbs over stock and is hand-made purely from 304 stainless steel in Italy!
As for sound, anyone who has heard this exhaust knows it is absolutely PERFECTION. It's not very loud, but does sound fantastic and provides literally zero drone. I've heard almost every exhaust for this car on the planet, and while I love some of the full systems, they do get on my nerves sometimes. This is the perfect balance of aggressive and wonderful tonality, with a not so obnoxious loudness, no drone, and no rasp.
The system was $2,400 new + shipping. I'm asking $1,800 SHIPPED for the exhaust.
Any questions, please do let me know!
