Hi, I`m new to e60 and this is my first post
I`m the happy owner of a 2004 530i that had to be stored for 2 years while I was in Spain and I did not wanted to sell it since it only had 11k miles on it.
Now that it is out of storage I wanted to change the looks since it had the OEM 17 138s w/ the Bridgestones RFT; so I went to Discount Tire and got a set of Beyern Mesh 18x8.5 fot the front and 9.5 for the rear with Bf Goodrich tires
The original order was for both front and rear with a 15 offset and a 72 hub size. To my surpise (and theirs) the rear did not fit with the 72 so they had to order the 25 offset with the 74.
Let me mention that this car was purchased in Mexico and it comes with the European specs , I do not know if this would make a difference with a US specs car.
I also want to get a set of 10mm spacers to make up for the difference in the rear but I do not know what I shoud get.
Any ideas?
