it needs at least 18" but preferably 19" wheel and it will look very very nice.

Go Poland! 
Kubica has shown his potentional, maybe the year '08 will be the one for him...
Next year we Finns keep an eye on K. R?ikk?nen with the Ferrari and M. Kovalainen with the Renault.
These kids has now a real possibility to show if they really can drive a car.
Driving in shitty conditions teaches - the hard way
And the answer to your question about the E60:
Strong package!
The car is comfy, roomy, safe, warm (nicely cooled also), nice to drive (even on icy roads)
and most of all - everything works as it should.
Need more HP!

Its the Li version made in China. The thing I'm wondering is, since its longer, is it wider too? I mean it would look funny if its a long skinny car..
