My Ride: 2004 545i TITANIUM GREY II on Black Dakota Lthr, Comfort Seats, Sports PKG, Premium PKG, Active/Dynamic Drive, NAV, Winter Package.
Thanks!
These are M5 OEM 166, I'm using the Hankook V12's 245/35/19 275/30/19 which is recommended by BMW. Also to get the aggressive look in the back I've got H&R 12mm spacers.
I have sports package and no rubbing at all and no difference in the ride especially with these Hankooks, I'm impressed!

Your car looks simply stunning!!!
I have a 2005 545i. What sizes are the rims and tires...are they reproduction or OEM and what tires do you use. Also, did you have the sport suspension. I ask because I have always loved those wheels, but nervous about whether they would rub or change ride the gap bw wheel and wheel well. Thanks

Looks great. Those are 12mm spacers??? I have the same car and wheels and tried 10 once and thought they stuck out to much (OEM M5 rims). I'm currently considering 5mm but now after seeing your car I may not since it may not do enough. I love the look, well done. BTW, you've got silver colored studs on the back and black up front ..yes? Due to spacers (new lugs)?

You are right I didn't think about the color difference with the studs when I bought the spacers, they are the longer bolts in the back.
