That looks sweet!! I'm thinking about getting some M6 wheels for my ride. I've seen a few members on here with them and I think it is a good balance between an OEM and custom look for the E60s.

Thanks guys for the comments... in love with my ride again.

I have about 1/2 inch clearance going up my driveway and over the speedbumps at work (yes, even entering and exiting at angles) so the ride can go no lower

.

I do the love the look from the back and front. The wide tires do make the car look mean. Also, the tires/wheels are now flush with the fender widths which look great (a lot sportier).

Now, I need to find a arqray rear deck spoiler. Anyone have any recommendations on where to purchase?

Forgot to answer the caliper paint kit... it is the GT kit. I almost painted it black but I like the way the red calipers stand out against the sapphire black car. Looks great (stands out) through the rims and while the wheels spin. Would love to have someone created BMWPerformance stickers for the regular e60 front calipers. I would buy them if someone made them.

You can price them out at Modbargains.com's website depending on the size you like... or speak to Ivan if you call them.

Good choice --- red painted calipers I see

+1....nice looking wheels!

I actually originally ordered a set from Mod Bargins waited 6 weeks before I decided to cancel the order due to a back order problem, so I got my 166's instead. However Mod-Bargains were great guys to work with, no compliants.

+100 on the red calipers

thats my next mod

BTW

Oh man, 19"s look so good! Currently 18"s here

I am so damn suspicious about that sidewall. It looks so thin! Not to mention 20"s!
Aargh! I've pondered the upgrade so long already.... Would like to keep the comforts, but...

Anyway! Congrats on the new wheels!
