ha ha...your finanacial status is directly linked to your intelligence
ArchM6:

1. Gene is one of the most respected members of this board -- not because of his post count but because he constantly goes out of his way to help other members.

2. There are many factors besides intelligence that determine a person's financial status. They include luck, work ethic, family connections, social intelligence, charisma, creativity and career choice just to name a few. There are rich people who are not particularly sharp just as there are people without significant means who are intelligent. The sweeping generalization that you made in order to take a swipe at Gene is just not "on the money" so to speak.

GL with your sale. But I do think that slamming Gene as hard as you did is probably not the most effective technique for attracting potential buyers among the members of this forum.

+1 for Gene.

-1 for the rich man peddling wheels

I'd pass on the wheels and tires for peace of mind.

ha ha...your finanacial status is directly linked to your intelligence and your post just made that point...good call there saying that I am selling stolen goods....true!! this forum is your playground, with more than 10K posts in less than 19 months => more than 20 posts a day, I did not know you were the e60.net forums very own Paul Blart Mall Cop ....in that case be assured they are all my personal property....and there is no fraudulent activity

btw, you just assumed that I was putting you down with the Lexus, makes a point again....so chill out and do what you do best, useless commenting on threads that you have no business with...and killing your time...good luck!
It?s interesting how some people are getting their education nowadays, comparing someone who has been helping out a lot of members here with Paul Blart is a cheap shot.

For Sale or Trade -

Brand new set of BBS LM Forged Wheels

Front 19? x 8.5?; Rear 19? x 10.0?


Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires, Front 245/35-19, Rear 275/30-19

The front 19 X 8.5 wheels are ET 17 offset.

The back 19 X 10.0 wheels are ET 25 offset.


Asking price 5,800 or trade with an appropriate set, looking for 10.5 in the rear if available.

Price paid at www.tirerack.com - $6800

This set has been on the M5 for 388 miles. Tires are 100% and so are the rims.

Can post pics later or send high resolution pics by email
Nice wheels, but I hope you're aware they're not the right size for the M5. How did it ride during those 388 miles?

Good point, the tires are 1-series too small for the M5.

The pictures of the wheels he posted are also not mounted on an M5....look at the brakes.
