Got the tires, thanks mrfva. All I have to do now is order the wheels from Garry and I'll be posting pics in a couple of weeks. Thanks again!
Now if I can only find a set of 255/30/20 and 295/25/20 at a decent price for myself...

My Ride: 545i
Model Year: 2004
Engine: N62
+1 on General Exclaim UHP's. I just bought them last week for my OEM 166's. Great tire for the price!! I am very happy with them. I actually waited on getting the wheels until the tires were back in stock. They were on national back order for like 6 weeks.
Tire sizes:
Front 245/35/19
Rear 275/30/19
Price including mounting and balancing was just about 700. Not bad. Good Luck.

Frank, get some coilovers too. Get a 2" drop on your 5 all around!
If I dropped any more than 0.5" I won't be driving anywhere, much less get in and out of my drive way
