So EuroCar owned these originally? and then Dranged you bought them off of him? I ask because some of the pictures show those BEAUT red brembo brakes, which made me wonder..
$3800(+shipping to Canada) is steep for what i want to spend on rims.What is retail on this setup?
I've been seriously considering RPI exhuast/pulleys, etc... which would probably run me about the same dough$$.. What are these sensors you speak of?!?! lol sorry im a BMW rook lol.
Aartsy
Also.. 285's? i was looking to go wider then stock if i was upgrading my wheels...

TPMS sensors=Tire Pressure Monitoring System. Your car may or may not need TPMS sensors depending on the year, but it looks as though your car is an 06 so chances are you do not need TPMS sensors. An easy way to tell is to check if your car has rubber valve stems on the wheels or metal valve stems? Rubber=No TPMS Metal=TPMS

These originally were Eurocarfan's rims and he sold it to Dranged. And now Dranged is selling them.

The wheels were originally owned by EuroCarFan and the pics of them with the Brembo's are ECF's car. Retail for the wheels new, is just over $6000. The tires are $850 shipped from Tire Rack. Mounting and road force balancing was $150. As a rule, any light weight 20" 3 piece forged wheel are going to be $1000+ per wheel.

This is one hell of a deal! I would get these from you Meyer, but I have got to start saving for a bigger rock for my girl. The rock can't be just mediocre either as it would not be fair that I can spend however much I want on my ride, but I can't on her rock. LOL.
Some one pick up thissteal!deal!

Jon, most M5s running 20" wheels still use 285 rear tires. Going wider may cause you to rub depending on the width and offset of the 20" wheel or how your car is lowered.

2006 M5s don't have TPMS, they still use the old FTM system.

Yeah actually whatever system is on my car, its crap. I had a rear tire go flat overnight back at the start of the spring, and it was downpouring. I drove my car to work (about 10kms) basically on the rim and flat rubber, and because it was pouring rain, and the low profile of the tire, i didnt even feel it until i pulled into my office and felt the back rear hit a little hard on the curb entrance. I called BMW pissed right off b/c my tire pressure sensors didnt alert me, and they told me it was because of the tire itself??!?!? I got screwed around by the dealer really.

I liked these wheels a lot and was one of the first to jump on the ordering wagon when they were released last year. However, I had always wanted to find the lightest wheel possible and the Neez QD7s were always one of my favorite wheels but they were too expensive new, over $8K a set. So when a member here listed a used set, I jumped on them right away and sold the 360s to DRANGED. DRANGED only had them for about a month but has decided to part out and sell his 550 so these wheels are back up for grabs.

With the FTM, if that one tire had already been somewhat flat when FTM was initialized then it may not detect anything. You have to make sure all the tire pressures are even when you initialize the system so if one of them goes down, it'll detect it. Not sure if that was your case.
