I was thinking of lowering my car a little and putting on some 18s. Since BMWs look low already I was wondering if i could slide by without getting recon. Do you guys have recon?

lowering would be nothing really on a BMW compared to hondas that is....as long as it isnt too low. its TINT you want to worry about for RECON....so go ahead and lower it:D

what rims were you thinking of putting on?

No recon here and i am pretty low. It is a $70 ticket for no recon compared to a $287 ticket for tint

I'm set on getting CSL replicas. I keep changing my mind about the size though. 18s or 19s, either way i'll be staggered. I found a site that has the 19s for real cheap and i've heard they're good quality too. I'll be putting BMW emblems on to make them look OEM lol.

I also plan on putting on 20% tint. I hope it's light enough not to be bothered

$287 PER window with illegal tint. Messed up.

Problem is passing safety check (without a hookup) if you really are supposed to have recon due to mods. Guess some places overlook it, others are strict about it.

Question about recon: Do you need to get recon for every mod? Or can you get recon'd for just wheels(or something small) and then do a bunch of other stuff after that? Just wondering how it works...

Nope. There is a list of mods attached to your recon paper.So what if you build a car over time? Do you have to get it re-recon'd everytime you add something?

recon is teh suck. Its a pita to get, and it seems to me that cops generally dont pull bimmers for recon.

In the end, its a 80$ ticket, is it worth the hassle? up to you.

and if you get a ticket, do you have to get recon'd to satisfy it or can you just pay and that's it?...
