switch the base model 15's for 16's and it'll be good. Sorry, I'm nitpicking, but 15's are tiny. Let's use the E90 for example, (it IS the lead image..) 16's came on the base cars, 17's were an option for lightly optioned, 18's on sport and highly optioned, 19's on M3 or special order wheels.

It would be called the PetrosMotors Felicitas .

Petros is my greek "nickname" meaning "A large stone.
Felicitas is a minor roman deity. He is the god of success.
