I think people in UAE gets something like 1 mil US from the government to build a house. Plus they also get cheap gas.

I think 12k is fair, since the offset for the OEM M5 rim are not quite fit on the normal 5ser... ... Are you trade in for the 20"? Which one will you go for? 
My tires is almost due I think, there's no traction in the rain. Any recommendation?

If the M5 rims have your setup like 245 front and 275 rear it should work fine.
My tires is almost due I think, there's no traction in the rain. Any recommendation?

You can try the Michelin PS2 and Dunlop Z1, they both have a good feed back!

The OEM M5 rim are come with 255/40/19 and 285/35/19, our 5ser should use 245/35/19 and 275/30/19.

I think I might try the PS2 or maybe something not as sporty but longer lasting.

Hi Guys,
Long time no see~
Have not been here for a while. I just got one of the headlights replaced, the adaptive headlight misfunction. The good thing is, they replaced it for free~~
Looking forward for the night drive.
