road noise increased very little. the toyo tires are really quite on the highway. as far as the comfort, honestly i felt about 15 to 25 percent stiffer ride. but its not bad at all. i was amazed at how smooth of a ride i still have. considering i have 30 and 35 series tires

Looks great, I love the Maya line. I was going to put Maya DTS on mine when I first got it, but everyone was out of stock during that time so I got restless and bought some 545 knockoffs rims. Looking at your car is making me regret that I didn't wait.

Very, very nice!!! Very clean, sculpted look to the wheel. Goes well with the look of the E60. I think out of all the aftermarket wheels I've seen, I like yours the best. 20 fit perfect, lowering slightly will make the car impeccable.

Congrats!!!

That is a nice front bumper, haven't seen that one yet.

The exhaust is way overpriced though. For the price of that exhaust, you could get an exhaust, software upgrade and CAI from a top competitor.

I'd pass on the rear bumper though, a little ricey IMO.
