awesome, thank you!!!!



If I go with BBS Rs-gt, I can save about 5-6 lbs. on each side.

Anyone know what the brakes and suspension will save if I go with Brembo and Coil over set?

That's not heavy, however, since the m5 has more than 400whp, every little bit will help a 535i.
Guess I'll add an ecu flash while I'm at it.
