I just bought them a few days ago and i love them so much. I guess i will keep them till i sell my car in 3 yrs time. (My HREs are already sold.. a m5 owner bought them from me?

? )

Oh yah, and the dent on my door was already fixed. The bodyshop did a great job on it. And some of you may notice something else that i've done on my car.. make a guess..?

? alohalc & EBMCS03 i'm sure you two are able to notice it..?

I really like the way it looks but you are going about one inch larger in tire diameter than stock. I want to do the same but don't know how badly it will affect the speedo and handling. Can you give me your experience in matter? So I'm thinking 19" instead.

Wow, that looks great.

Those polished HREs never looked good on your car to be honest.

As far as i know, the car seems to be slower with the 20". However, the R-10 are actually weighed lighter than my 19" HREs.. That was what the people from the bodyshop told me. And handling wise is pretty much the same, just make sure you bring your car for allignment after you change your wheels. IMO the 19" in E60 looks kinda small..
