I have ordered some H&R 20mm spacers for the rear - three reasons:

(i) from pmmeke's pic (thanks for posting it btw and have you any more of the profile from the rear?) they don't look too out of place;

(ii) they are cheaper than 15mm; and

(iii) they do not require extra long bolts as they come specifically designed for the E60 to mount to the hub so you can still use your BMW bolts to mount the wheels to the spacers.

I will get them in 7-10 days and am looking forward to fitting them and the effect it will have on the rear profile

thanks all

Pmmeke,
Did you notice any increase in -'ve camber, and did you re-align the wheels after adding the spacers?

wow, it looks great!! , I'm thinking a little brake anti-seize lube would do the job with out having to take the wheels off and re-apply every few months.

Has anyone tried copper grease, tyre fitters use it on the wheel bolts works OK
