just my first day with my white 09 535i xdrive without sport pkg. have cobb tuner for my 135i so looking to interchange the unit between them.
have stock 17's with eagle rsa new tires as just picked the car up yesterday with 15k on it.
will consider adding shadowline trim and maybe replacing the front bumper.
wondering what are the best and cost effective options there are out there for me to tighten the supsension without losing the comfortable ride and what are the smartest wheel choices out there.

I could spurt out a load of places where to get stuff from, but look on ebay or google MStyle or go to www.mstyle.co.uk and have a look at the e60 section for some insperation, remember if its being sold on a web site you will get it on ebay and cheeper

the sport front and rear bumpers are the best choice and front spliter rear spoiler may be an idea. As for suspension, get some KW or Eibach sport springs for a subtle drop and it will stifen the ride a little. As for wheels, the world is your's, some thing in a 19 or 20 dished or not to dish that is the question. there are several e60's running on dubs.

Have a look at my intro thread and what i have one to mine so far
