Hey everyone. The only thing I got going on wiith my 2007 530i is the sport package and bi-xenon adaptive lights. Do you suggest wheels first (19's or 20's) or an mtech kit? If I'm gonna go with the wheels I want something that's flushed and not tucked.

Thanks for your help!

Wheels first make sense, but the m-tech is a must as well. Search wheel options on here...it's the most discussed topic.

a wise man once asked me "would you put on your shoes before you put on your clothes?" basically, you almost always put on your clothes first before you choose your shoes no? so why would you do it any different on your car? LOL! just a thought

Wheels for sure. 19"s or 20"s will make a huge difference in appearance and grin factor. You can add the Mtech later.

I suggest wheels first. You can get those installed immediately for instant personal gratification. The Mtech will need some time because you will have to wait for it to be painted. Let me know what kind of wheels you are interested in as I some great deals on a few wheels in both 19's & 20's.
