Hi Guys,

I finally got my wheels after a week of waiting and here it is. Let me know what you guys think. There are some members that placed the order with me and they will be receiving their's shortly

I went with a 19x9 ET20 and 19x11 ET33 with 245/35/19 and 295/30/19 Hankook V12 EVO

I weighed the wheel before I installed the tires and the front weighs 24lbs and the rear ONLY weighs 25lbs (19x11). I calculated the wheel and tire combo and it weighed ~51lbs in the front and ~54lbs in the rear.

ENJOY!








i really like the wheels and i think they really nice. the only thing that caught my eye was the front wheel wells. I think it kind of looks odd with the wide body m5 fenders. That wheel gap in the front looks pretty big. Im not talking about the top, im talking about the gap between the front bumper and the carbon fiber panel where is meets up with the side skirt. Wheels are good looking wheels i just think the fabs fit in there better and were perfect.

+1. I said the same thing to Joe on email. It might be just the camera angle though.

I really like the finish on those wheels; kinda what i was aiming for when I had my wheels refinished.
