Dont really want to go into details, but a deal I had going on went sour so now I am left with this Wheel/ Tire pacakge

I just picked up a set of OEM 19' M5 166's ( with the M6 offset ) and a brand new set of Gen. Exclaim UHP's. They havent even been been opened up from the Packaging from BMW. I bought the wheels from the parts manager at MotorWerks BMW in MN --Frank Jershe and the tires from tiretrack.com.

Frank is a contact that site member DRANGED plugged me with.

Both wheels and tires just got to my Crib in Fremon CA. Im out of the country right now, but will be home as early as Sat. morning. If anybody is interested just drop me a PM. Im in Beijing right now so I will pretty much be able to answer any emails whatever time a day it is.

wheels were 1546.50 and the tires were 696.38--

no caps, no sensors

JR

If you really want pics just get at me and I'll have my bro take some and Ill send to your personal email. Assuming that the receipts for both the wheels and tires arrived in the packages-- I have those too.

yes it will work...the m6 rear offset is the only difference...it's wider by 11mm(M5 is ET 28, M6 is ET 17)...it will make the rear wheels sit flush with the fenders...

For those who PM"d me--

Thanks for the taken interest regarding the 166's, but I was fortunate enough to contact Frank at Moterwerks and was able to cancel/ return the Wheels. You can still go to him though for the same discount that we all get here on the website. If you are really interested just shoot him an email and mention to him that DRANGED ( John Meyer ) referred you to him. I bought my set shipped for 1546.

below is a portion of my conversation with DRANGED, a very valued and helpful forum member.


"Hello devildawg712, For sure give my buddy Frank Jershe a call at Motorwerks BMW here in MN. Great guy!! Drop my name, John Meyer and let him know you are from E60 forum. He is there typically monday-friday 10-5 central time. 952-886-6326 is his direct line.
Email is FJERSHE@MOTORWERKSBMW.COM He will give you 25% off retail. You might want to order the center caps/roundels for the wheels as well.

On the M166's I would go with the M6(ET17) rear offset instead of the M5(ET28) offset. Gives you a bit of a wider stance. Most guys buy the M5 offset and regret it. They end up buying and running spacers to make the M5 offset stance wider like the M6 offset. They could have just bought the M6 offset but most don't do enough research to know that this option exists.

I am running General Exclaim UHP's which are great tires for the money. Are they the best tire available, no. Are they the best tire available for the cheapest amount, yes. Great tires and they are only like $700 total. You want to be running 245/35-19 fronts and 275/30-19 rears.

Any other questions do not hesitate to ask.

/john


I do have the tires tho if anyone is willing to swoop those up.
