The first one is visually: imporves the look and adds a sporty flavour to your already nice 280. Second, loses weight which imporves 0-60 times and adds a more exciting tracking experience when equipped with stiffer springs.

| Yes I want a finish that is is keeping with Pewter, Cubanite in Europe, (OEM is Titanium Silver which I really like with my color car,quite different from bright or sterling and I think chrome is too gaudy),maintain the staggered fitment, and be as light as possible in 17",(equal or lighter than my 16"). I don't care too much for the available OEM selection options in Titanium. So there is my dilemma. |
