Nice car, congrats 
Please do not do other mods than get you a OEM set of 19" wheels,
with non RF tyres.
Or even better - no mods at all!
Ps. Your avatar...it really is you, isn't...compared the the rearview mirrow pic :'(

My Ride: 2008 Sapphire Black on Black M5 - loaded sans soft close doors
Congrats!
I too went from a GS430 to the 550 - oh man talk about never wanting to go back. Up North here you REALLY appreciate the heated steering wheel and the heated seats (my GS's seats NEVER got warm - the 550s are INSTANT) - this of course will not matter to you in your location
But seriously the GS does not compare (nor should it at $15K less).
I also was honest with BMW NA on my survey. My salesperson (who was incredibly hard to get a hold of after ordering the car) and refused to negotiate in good faith (EVEN THOUGH I HAD SENT HIM $130K WORTH OF DEALS IN THE PRIOR YEAR), was so ticked about my survey he emailed me and said "Why didn't you act mad during delivery?". Like it would have mattered - then he bitched to my friends who had bought cars from him. This kind of treatment is unacceptable when spending this kind of cash. I will be using a different salesperson/dealer next time. Your salesperson will also get torqued as these ratings hurt them big time. Good for you.
