Tasi, did you get those springs installed? Any pics, does it rub now? :-P

I was running 295/30 on the back (and 255/35 in the front), and got my rear fenders rolled a bit (about 7mm) to get rid of rubbing.

My wheels are getting a new smoked paint look now (Mystic blue 545, coupled with b&w emblems, smoked side markers and black matte grille the car will be a lot darker:-) Also maybe the tip of the exhaust will get painted matte black), and new tires, thinking about the same setup as yours (M5 default tire sizes btw, but the wheel offsets are different, and the wheel width also). I am using regular sport suspenssion settings springs and my Koni FSD kit will be installed next week, but with the roads here i am not going to lower it. Thinking about Michelin Pilot sport ps2 tires, because i love their traction on dry road (on the wet i just need to be careful:-P).

I had my wheels painted (it could have been a little less dark, but still i think it fits the theme):


Now all i need is b&w emblems and wheel caps (already ordered), smoked tailllights and ofcourse M package with mirrors and trunk finisher:-)

With b&w emblems the dark wheels look better (a bit dust on them, but you'll get the picture:-P):
