I think cidair mentions (several pages back) that he got the Hartge suspension from an earlier trip to their factory. Search several pages back and you'll also see a picture of his car with the lowering springs next to an M5 with stock suspension.

Men I love those Hartge wheels, I would think they should also look great on a regular E60 right?? do they sell them in smaller sizes than 21" Cidair?

yea please help me find out, those 21" are a little crazy for a regular 5, but for the king of the road,
you know nothing smaller would do!
