A few weeks back Wheelpower went to Shark Club to promote their business. They came with some Mercedes and BMWs. They got all their cars lined out in the front of the club. One of those BMWs was supposed to be a M5. What that supposed to be you? I'm friends with one of the guys at Wheelpower so I was able to park my ordinary 545 in the VIP lot and free passes inside.

If you can, would you be willing to join our Meet in San Diego September 23rd? For more info click on the link in my sig.

No, that must have been another M5. Is your friend Jason at wheelpower? He is the one who helped me with my car, very nice guys over there. Unfortunately, I am always in and out of town during the weekends, but if I'm stationary that weekend I wouldn't mind a little fun drive down to San Diego. Is the meet for all BMW's?

The guy I know is Will. The Meet is for all BMW e60s. If some e63s want to join in they are more than welcomed. Hope to see you there next month.

But WP made you buy their own wheels nice, R10s they did not suggested you any HM wheels, just out of curiousity but I like it as it was a q only. chill' silver windshiled sticker and one bad news.

Thank you ats. I actually thought about Hamann wheels first and then they introduced the R5's to me. I didn't even think twice, they look so much better in my opinion.
