I finally got my tires on.... Now here is the problem the stupid lowering links I have on my car drop my car so much that the control arm thing touchs the top of the tires and makes this horrible noise so I'm hoping John can help me Friday ad drive my car overto impressie and get these lowering links removed

KING and C's your all hating everyings gotta start somewhere.... I dont have a E60 anymore does that mean im banished from the meets now?
-on another note with my wheels i complained to Toyo for the melting of my side wals and the representaive told me my tires that i bought were not made for my car and they were overloaded thats why they melted. they "only recommend O.E. specs" anything beyond you take at your own risk. Thats a load of crap, the guy that i bought the rims from got these from a shop that specified them for my car so i think its total BS

Again, I am NOT cancelling the meet if the forecast is for scattered t-storms in the afternoon. Our drive is in the morning when t storms usually do not happen. I am only cancelling if the forecast is for steady rain all day. In that event, we'd do a rain date.

Yes the real drive is from the Palisades Center to Torches. If Joe insists on splitting twisties duty, there are two different stops where you could swap drivers.
Why not get him to buy you a 2010 or 09 CPO M5? Paul Miller has a 2010 with 2k miles listed at $75k, meaning it cam be had for a good deal less than that. No more expensive than your 550 was new and sooooo much more power.
