  • e39 got low.... but needs wheels...

    the m5 went through a transformation in the past 2 weeks, i think the ride height is just about spot on, maybe raise the rear 1/8 inch or so, or lower the front another 1/8

    im torn on the black vinyl roof, i feel it pulls the car together with the tinted windshield and all, but then again all silver was clean.

    my issue now is wheels, and i come to you guys to help me find something. i was almost about to order the te-37 reps from varstooen but want to see if i can find something a little more out there.

    ive been playing with the idea of some custom ccw classics, but ive never seen them on an e39.

    also been thinking about running the oem 9.5 rears up front, and having another set of oem rears widened an inch and the rear fenders flared out, but i am an indecisive bastard and would love some suggestions/ comments from you guys on the car, some wheel help and the photography. i feel like im just starting to really figure out how to use the drebel.

    anyway, here they are...
















    lemme know what you think

        Widen the 8.5's and stick the rears up front, stretch a tire on it and raise the rear just a hair.

        Looks killer. this makes me want to go a bit lower

              oz futuras are crazy but a bit overplayed maybe.

              not this crazy necessarily, but you get the idea

                    Keep the wheels, just space them out.

                      well, look what i found


                      but the offsets arnt where i want them, and id need to run 30+mm worth of spacers to make them fit how id want :-/

                      or save the monies and widen the stockers.
