*rUstY_nUts* 9 Report post Posted December 12, 2008 Hi Byron... I think I saw your car on Tuesday night about 5.00 Why was it bouncing along Ormiston Road's new extension only doing 50 kph ?? and you went so, so slow round the corner into Murphy's Road. I was in the wifes Honda, I slowed down and missed the lights just to check the car out because I thought something was wrong and you might need a tow truck. The cops have been doing that stretch all week and your car could be a "Target" unless youve got a cert. Your mods are not really my cup of tea... especially on a 520...the wheel look on the M5 at the right height though has class Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

*rUstY_nUts* 9 Report post Posted December 12, 2008 I was referring to the height of the vehicle when I said your mods were not my cup of tea....not the other things you have done. Good to see you have gotten over the low as theme and are now going to go with better springs and shocks When asking for peoples thoughts on a forum... always expect criticism, because everyone has different opinions. Their opinions are not personal attacks... I hope....but some here might not feel the same You will always get opinions that you may like and some that you may not like....however you did ask And BTW.. I actually thought there was something wrong when I saw you the other day Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The ones in your showroom thread are average a. yea was just going to suggest photoshop. Best way to find out before u paint the rims! i personally dont like fully black painted wheels, but leaving the lip silver/polished looks mint...saying that im thinking of the rims on the black m5 posted before...they have a nice lip. not sure if those are the ones in question.

Apex 693 Report post Posted December 14, 2008 IMHO black wheels work well on light coloured cars or on dark if your going for a stealth look.. Shadow Chrome would look good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
