Friends don't let friends drive stock!
Hey Guys been searching for some really aggressive fitment shots on the 5's, but haven't come across anything that is specific to this.
Now I haven't ordered any wheels yet, still got some measuring to do. But I see alot of wide tire action going on here IE. 285's 275's etc. and it looks awesome, but I'm more the 235/35 strecthed on a 10in wide wheel with no room for play..
Anyway feel free to post pics of fitments here..
Here's the flush look I'm after..
Some will like, others will

I'm dropped on KW V2's and I had to roll and shave my fenders. I still have some rubbing issues, so I'm currently using rubber bump stops to prevent full compression. Will probably go back to 285's on the next set of tires, the squeaking noise the bump stops make sounds hella gay.
