Wolverine has RS GT's on his previous 545i and now his M5 if I recall.

They look so much better on the car than the pic, perhaps because they're 20s

Are there any issues with 20 X 10.5 rear and 20 X 9.5 fronts?

That's correct. They are the RXII, and are not available for the E60 in 20" They do have 19's, but they just don't look big enough. Cast wheel, made by BBS Japan. Those are the new 21" application, which BBS shows as an approved fitment for E60 M5. I wouldn't think it would be too much of a stretch for the normal e60, even thought the M has a touch more room in the front wheel housing. Nothing a little heating, trimming, and pushing won't fix!!
That sure does look good. And I'd like to see some more pix....where'd they come from, do we know him?

That's not the same car. The one in the pix has 19's and HandR coilovers. Really nice, but still not quite big enough, even that low....

Here's what the RS-GT's look like on my car. (I cheated with a photoshop lowering to show what the car will look like with the H&R springs I'm having put in next month).
