1st the stuff the you ask for is western food so I am not surprise that you can not get it in the restaurants over here.
2nd if you love eating food like me then turkey is not a good meat to eat, it is ruff as hell like sand paper.
we can get any meat in HK.
I cook turkey at home at Xmas which I can get from supermarkets.
you will never find macaroni and cheese in HK. I have to make this stuff at home too.
I alway have it back in UK.
as for brocolli it is very$$$ in HK so most restaurants will not use it cost too much and most HKers like to eat cheap.
anyway why would you find these food over here in Asia when there is plenty of good Asia food to try.
I from UK and I do miss the fish & chips in the news paper rapping with loads of vinger in it
Same here, I am back from Australia, no no no, brother pinguhk, you need to flood them chips with the vinegar!

Beware of rubbering on rear only. Good Mod
thanks for the reminder, this time they actually have specific dimension for E60 in the catalog. Back is same as e90 M3 while front is a bit wider.

with my super high sitting rear rubbing should be fine la I think.

Should be ok on rear but you got to be careful with the 19" wheels, they are easy to kurb

I liked RS for it's narrow spokes so I can show the brakes better, but it's quite racey while ours are not porsche like billy's so I was think it would be nice if there is a lip for RS. then walala there is this RS-D when I do more web browsing at home.
So which RS-D did you order? The one in the middle or the bottom one of the pictures?

Or they are for front and rear? They looks great btw and doesnt look too "Jap"

Dont forget to get some metal polish to polish up the wheels, you can ask me when the wheels arrive, i got plently left at home.

yea, think the rear will have deeper rim than front. those are the only size that fit e60 as seen in the catalog. order black wheel with silver rim combo to fit my body color better.

Thanks for your offer Keith, will definately get your help when the wheels arrive.

haha, I didn't notice that. I actually quitted reading stuff from here for a long long time. Somehow the modding bugs bit me last year and I came back and was surprised that this thread is still alive! My pleasure to be part of this long living thread!
