    Not hating or anything, and maybe that's just me, but IMHO that metal lip that sticks out of the tire looks awful. From the sides it looks great though.

    i can tell ur running fk452s. Make sure u keep an eye on the tire pressure when stretching them. My tire pressure went below once and the sidewall started to bubble. Anyways car looks clean!

    can you share your wheel widths, tire widths, and offset?

    Holy sh!t! FTMFW

    That's what I call being unique. Those rims are like no other. Forget the typical MPars, Fiskes, Style 5s, RDs, HRE, LMs reps or BBS, Hamanns........

    Thanks for refreshing this E39 forum with some new sh!t. Hope to see them in person at a future meet!

    Don't tell you are still running spacers with those bad boys!

    I absolutely HATE stretched tires. I also don't like wheels that stick out past the fenders. Reminds me of this:

    What calculations? All you posted where pics...that's nice...but not illuminating to the rest of the board. Were there questions about what you did? If yes, none of them have been answered yet in this thread...again...all we have are your wonderful pictures.

    So...how about sharing all these "calculations" that you've found out are "correct".

    Looks hot, but those tires definitely don't fit.
    Rules to live by:
    - Fast, reliable, cheap. You can only have two.
    - Do it right, or do it twice.
    - BMW: Just because you can afford to buy one, that doesn't mean you can afford to own one.

    Not a fan. Wheels do not match the style of car. The stretch doesnt seem right either. Usually you see the sidewall flare out more. It seems like they just mounted the tire dead center. See Olek's old car for proper stretch.

    No not hating. Just not something I stop and look at on a bimmer meet. No offense.
