I really dislike this style of wheel..... Not bad otherwise

[scweet14]

if this was slammed it would be perfect!

[yusoslo]

I agree, I wish I could slam it, but it rides so good, and this is my first car that can clear speed bumps so its nice. I have 2 bagged vehicles currently, so this is a nice daily. The black makes it appear to have zero fender gap. When you see it in person people as me if it is lowered. Its dropped good, not slammed. I wish I could slam it though!!!

I love it, of course it'd look nicer just a bit lower but understandable you wanna keep it a nice DD. Sometimes I wish I had a capable DD lawl

Sounds fucking AMAZING though. Holy jesus I did not expect it to sound that wonderful

5series.net reppin. yeah i never liked those 111's for some reason. regardless, let's see another stanced out E60..wish i hadn't sold mine for this POS w211...

[o9w211]

damn muffler delete sounds good on v8's..

[yusoslo]

It's crazy because I think the 111 look like OEM M5 wheels but a bit more aggressive. I plan on keeping them but the only wheels that have caught my eye are the varrstoens that I had on the G35, but I already had those, and the only way to make them pop is to strip the lip and polish it. That makes it a bear to keep clean. All the cars I have had I feel the E60 is the hardest to find the perfect wheel. I think they do concave designs better than deep dish.

That exhaust sound...

Finally started doing some things. Spacers installed and drop is coming on Tuesday. Fenders are getting rolled then the tires are going from 245 to 285. Meaty flush!!!
Before:

After


BTW Car is in the body shop. Ill show pics after it is out.

[yusoslo]

Car is back from paint. To say I am pleased is a huge understatement.






I think I am not liking the black roundels on the wheel center caps. I am going to look for silver center caps that look better than the Miro caps. Any opinions? Like or dislike the black center caps? Any recommendations for new ones? Thanks!

[yusoslo]

Hello rolled fenders and cut springs.

[yusoslo]

It feels nice to be lowered again. Even if it isnt slammed like my other rides.

[Maurits]

Doesn't cutting the springs impair handling on such a car?
I would say such a beauty deserves some good coilovers.

[yusoslo]

No not at all. The car rides the same and the 1st lower coil is a dead coil in the spring rate. It was there to handle 2 large passengers in the rear plus a full trunk. I daily this car 35k a year I did not want harsh coilovers or springs. The front sat perfect and the rear was a tad too high. With new shocks and a half a coil missing in the rear. The car rides better than stock. Now if i do a 130mph drift the car may not be the best but its a DD.

Cutting coils is the wave of the future!
