Thumbs up Drive to the top of Mount Mitchell, through Blue Ridge Parkway!

On Saturday a few BMW owners took a drive through the Blue Ridge Parkway, and to the top of the highest point E. of the Mississippi. Talk about some curvy roads... It's good practice before you tackle Tail of the Dragon, Deals Gap.

e90 328i, 2 ZCP e46 M3s, and 1 e92 M3. We had a blast, but makes me want an M car. Hope you enjoy the pics.

I like how my new wheels look rolling.

Looks like a great drive, thanks for the pics. Was that your 3 series with the M3 18"s? I love the look of those wheels and will be trading my 19"s out for a set of those shortly. Basically as soon as I kill the current set of Bridgestone road tires.

Thanks!

Correct. Just swapped my VMR V710s for these with my buddy last week. I love the OEM 18s. He wants to powdercoat the V710s black, add spacers, and drop it. Same look as Tom's car from EAS.
