OP: how about you let us know what size you are looking at/want..both width and diameter...

PTL's reply might have been rather short, but if you search his posts, he's done a lot of research and has posted very useful info a good number of times regarding "aggressive" offsets for RWD e60's....

You can't have a good looking "FLUSH OMG HELLA UBER" whatever the hell you wanna call it with a stock suspension. You gotta crawl before you can walk. Start saving your money.

So there.

ive done so much legwork for the forums on fitment and tire sizes for going aggressive, its really now just plug and play if you do a simple search

the point is, i have no interest in lowering my luxury car. I just want a 19/20" setup that is flush with the fenders.
