My Ride: '06 BMW 550i MSport, Carbon Black,20" Vossen CV-1's,Remus,RPi scoop,H&R.
'07 Porsche 997 C4S with Aerokit,iForged 20",X51 engine upgrade,PCCB's,Guards Red.
Now you've got me panicking!I've got a set of 20" Vossen CV-1's(concaves)on order and i want to get the stance dead right.That 'after' pic above is exactly the look i'm after!I'm gonna run Falken 452's 275/25 and 245/30,also on order.I've already dropped it on H&R sport springs and popped a Remus on the rear 
Has anyone got pics or offset info on the new CV-1's?

Much better!!! Those who have the balls would be fine running 0 offsets just gotta run a stretched tire and you are good..... After reading this looks like that's what I'll be doing... Thanks for the info bro!!!!
P.s when you all say add a spacer for for suspension clearance is it bc of the kwv2 ? Just curious....

I'm sure it varies from E60 model to E60 model but my 530i needed AT LEAST a 3mm spacer just to clear the FRONT KW coilovers to even get the car off the alignment rack. So yea, I needed a spacer just for suspension clearance to clear the KW V2 coilover for the fronts only.
for Seedster's zero offset FTW!!! Should've done that in the first place...do NOT trust what HRE recommends especially if you are looking for that aggressive/flush look! :thumbsdown:
