At last....This is a 530i without sports package. I installed 19" staggered with General Exclaim tires. I did not choose to lower the car. I now have to figure out how to turn the tire sensor warning light off...
Compare to my original picture in the avatar.
What do you think?

These are replicas. $1600 ($850 wheels and $750 tires--balanced) from Lake Shore Wheel & Tire with General Exclaim Tires.
So far, so good.

What are the tire sizes and spacers?
No spacers and no drop down to achieve the sports package look.

Well if i may be honest, you see it a little bit it are replicas Because they don't really have the deep fish look like the OEM 166's
Because they don't really have the deep fish look like the OEM 166'sThats what I was thinking... They look like replicas.
And at the end of his post he said they are replicas at $1600... YIKES!!!! for like $1300 you can buy real OEMs. No?
