Since nobody has answered this yet here are my thoughts, which obviously everyone has their opinion.

1) mudflaps.. they didn't even give me the option at the time, and I still don't have them. Do the fenders get dirty? Definitely... I have on and off thought about looking at the online ones through amazon/ebay and never have bought them. You can certainly use generic ones if you're up to the task of making them fit... I just got lazy and haven't done anything.

2) the All weather winter rubber mats are actually pretty good. I got them to throw it in with my purchase, but I think it's $100 or $150 option? They hold up a long time so I think they are a good investment, and they fit.

3) No car eye available for me so no input. There was active cruise control vs a heated steering wheel.. I'm in a cold climate so I got that. I have read plenty of people complain the ACC doesn't work great anyways.

4) wireless charger.. no way is it work $600 USD in my opinion.. get your own. Plus, my phone doesn't do wireless charging unless I take it out of the case, so for me it's a no in both ways. Plenty of people have bought generic ones off amazon and put it in the holder, it works fine.

5) Asthetically up to you. I have 18's and 19's (for summer).. as well as 17's for winter tires. The key is that the runflat tires completely suck and are very hard/rough. I notice no difference in 18 or 19" because they both have runflats on them. I will swap them to regular tires as soon as I wear them down. If your upgrade price to 18" wheels isn't all that different then they are fine. Although I have no idea how bad the roads are for you. With this being said.. if there is an option at all for the $300 (at the time) spare tire and kit.. I would certainly get this installed factory! It is much harder to source all the pieces and spare tire and put it in for that price.
