Mel's 167 reps look great. 19 inches is a safer wheel size than 20s for the battle scarred streets on NYC on which Mel and I drive. Even in 19 inch size, the Miro rep 167s make a powerful visual statement.

Mel's car does look really good. To be honest i dont know why i want to get rid of them. They look great.....i dont know, guess im not satisfied with the whole car in general. Its a nice car and love the look....i didnt think i would say this but i need more performance. It would cost to much to mod the 530 to where i want it. So i guess its either going to be drive the 530 nearly completely stock and just start saving for the next BMW or get the 535/335 asap.
Who knows....maybe the wheels dont even get sold and i keep them into next spring. Do the umnitza kit this winter, and get some lci tails over the winter. Then maybe i will be satisfied?!?

Honestly, I say keep them because 20" wheels don't look good on a car with a stock body and no drop. Once you get the mtech kit your car will look "better" than Mel's I think....(slightly)

I would actually disagree with that statement too. Aside from Mel's car being a 550, her car is flawless. Not too much and not too little. It's just right.

You have no idea what you just started by saying that...
No matter how much I mod my car, I don't believe that it will ever look better than a M5.

Dude what? When did I say a 530 was better than a 550??? I didn't! Therefore there is no argument here. I was comparing the "Looks" of Mel's car and Brett's car and they are pretty much the same (again appearance-wise ) . Both E60's....and sorry to say they ARE in the same class, they are BOTH LUXURY SEDANS.

I was talking "look-wise" NOT overall...of course Mel's car would be better comparatively foo.
In my opinion, if AWG were to keep her Miros and decided to do an MTech, "I" think it would like it better IMO.

Just as there is no comparison between my 550 and a M5. I don't think of my car in the same class as a M5.

So side profile you would look at mine and mel's cars and see a kit, same wheels, except mine are an inch bigger.
Everyone knows the 550 is clearly better than a 530. No one will disagree with that.

+1 and why would you want it to look like Mel's anyway? Her car looks like crap
