Hi All, I'm the proud owner of a black on black 2006 SEL - I've owned it since '07 but never managed to get a post on here. Long story short, our world-famous potholes managed to damage 3 of my 4 SEL rims within 6 months of buying the car - I'd been driving on steel rims ever since... yuck. I held back from posting since I wasn't about to post those pics on here. I recently got my new wheels: 18" Sport Edition F10's from Tirerack. I like 'em - to most people, the car almost looks stock; which is fine with me. It's my daily driver. Let me know what you think! ...And a closeup of the rim in motion:

I have exactly the same problem! I have yet to fix it, but at least I know the issue is relatively benign, and no longer have a paranoid fear of a tie rod end or ball joint coming loose...
