OP: how about you let us know what size you are looking at/want..both width and diameter...

PTL's reply might have been rather short, but if you search his posts, he's done a lot of research and has posted very useful info a good number of times regarding "aggressive" offsets for RWD e60's....

You can't have a good looking "FLUSH OMG HELLA UBER" whatever the hell you wanna call it with a stock suspension. You gotta crawl before you can walk. Start saving your money.

So there.

the point is, i have no interest in lowering my luxury car. I just want a 19/20" setup that is flush with the fenders.
