In the process of deciding on what rims to buy. So far the following have been done: dinan stage 1 suspension, new chip, auto-solutions short shift kit. Planning on changing to a euro conversion.

Beautiful! If you value your life...........don't get 18's! :laugh:

IMO best wheels for M5s are 17" OEM style 5 composite-basket weaves. And if you the devil temps you.....they are still available from the "stealer" in staggered 18's. Don't forget to get hub centric rings for any E39 wheels you may get!

Congrats.......

My personal favorites: (aside from mine)

Throwing Stars

18" parallels

17" baskets

Your car looks amazing. Does your car sit at that height in the picture after the suspension work? Sits a little lower right?

I would consider Alpinas (if you stay with 16s) or Fikses. Or you could just leave the stock style 5s.

I lived in Brighton, MI before I moved to the great state of Texas. I was thinking of selling the car but now that I'm out of the cold weather, I decided to keep it and do some upgrades.

Thanks for the compliments....the car now sits lower after the new suspension set up. I bought the car in North Carolina and the previous owner did the dinan suspension upgrade.

I see. I remember when you had in on Roadfly. You probably don't recall, but we chatted via emial a couple times.
A came so close to purchasing it, but it was just the wrong time.

If you ever do decide to sell it again, feel free to drop me a line. Again, beautiful car!
