I finally have some time to wash my car and take some pictures of my car. It's a 530xi with 19" Iforged Classic and 245/35/19 PS2. Several members have asked me to show them the pics and want to see whether lowering is necessary with the xi model with 19" rims. With 245/35/19 tires there will be some rubbing in the front when I turn the steering ALL THE WAY to one side. So rubbing will be even worse if the car is lowered. And to me lowering is not necessay since I think the gap is not that bad. Hope you guys like my ride.

But the tires looks fat, maybe because of the wheel gap.

Very nice and clean car.
But the 19" wheels and rims on the side photo looks very small.
