Hello,

Just got new shoes for the RUTHLESS530. The M5 Wheels are more than I expected. They bring a new dimension to how the car looks, especially since I had them 3x Chromed. I'm very pleased with the outcome. As soon as we get some decent weather... I will post some pics for you guys' review. Maybe, continue to give good advice as to the RUTHLESS530's new look. Will sell 4 Style 135's w/ tires if anyone is interested. (3900 miles)

Original set-up
18' Style 135
Goodyear 245/40/18

Present set-up
19' Style 166
Toyo T1-R 245/35/19 front
Toyo T1-R 275/30/19 rear

Hello,

I rushed out to get the RUTHLESS530 washed so I could post some pics. Hopefully you guys give me the thumbs up If not... I'm not thin skinned, give me your honest opinion and/ or suggestions.

Very nice ruthless. Enjoy them. Put your thick skin on though because the chrome will attract some not so favorable responses around here. I personally am not a fan of the chrome but it does look good. Is the setup staggered?

Hideous!

Seriously, it looks really sharp! This is one of the very few times I think chromed rims look good on a 5 series. I think the reason is the black color and the chrome window trim and the fact that the M5 rims were designed for the 5 series body unlike some of the horrible rims I have seen.
