VERY nice. Stock suspension, no rubbing? I forgot if it was on the stock suspension or not. If you can do a 305 rear with no rubbing, I may be feeling that uncomfortable have to have something kind of itch in the armpit right about now. wow

That set up doesn't rub? Ever?
Looks way cool standing still but where I live those wheels would last about a week before some road hazard ate one and spit it out. Warm climate guys have so many more choices for wheels...

The fitment is very aggressive, so the fenders have been modified, to clear the wheels. Its possible to fit 21's without any mods at all, but the lip would not be this large.
Also this car is from Metro NY, where the roads are as bad, if not worse than the Boston streets!!

The 20" wheels are going to range from 24-26lbs on average. Also on M5's we run 20x9.5 / 10.5" wheels. If you want the narrower ones, of course that's your preference.

Suspension is H&R Sport. The base 5 series is pretty much capped out at 285/295 with no fender mods. These are 21's so fitting a 295/25 with that lowering was already a huge task.

Thanks so much for the kind words, they are available in 19, 20, 21, 22 and 24" sizing, FYI.
Yeah mello was at the bklyn queens meetup, but then one of the guys in his convoy had car problems so he didn't make it to the actual meet itself. I think someone got pics of it at the meetup location though.

Darn, I didn't get a picture of them before they left.

Yeah I remember seeing his car pulling in the Queens caravan spot. That is one mean set of wheels. Wanted to take pictures but we're already running late. So I figured I would take pictures at Torches or something.
