TheGrinch · 12-09-2020, 02:26 PM

Same...love to hear a drive by under load.

windtendo · 12-09-2020, 03:30 PM

What a beautiful ride! Well done!

YanoM5 · 12-09-2020, 03:58 PM

I agree. Well done. I always go back and forth between 20's and 21's. I think the solidified it! 21's it is. Great modding!

Do you know the front and rear offsets you went with?

21x10 w 2753021
21x11 w 2953021

Why didn't you go with 285/30 and 295/30?

Wheel/Tire Specs:

21x10 w 275/30/21
21x11 w 295/30/21

Color is Brands Hatch Grey with the Stealth Matte Wrap done by Sticker City. Really makes the carbon ceramic calipers pop.

Took it out to get some photos with @Mr.Fletcher on Instagram.

Do you have any spacers? How's the standard fitment ??

Because I'm going to adjust my suspension and I like my car to be extremely low (too low for some) and if I went with a wider tire I would be rubbing.

I was running a 5mm spacer on the front but will be removing that spacer as I'm going to adjust suspension down.

But you went wider in the rear, don't you have to be within 10 between front and rear for AWD?

Properly lowered this afternoon at R1 Motorsports in Chatsworth!

Powerbeast · 12-10-2020, 01:33 PM

Updates coming!

vladberca · 12-12-2020, 05:30 PM

Another spectacular build 👍
Any plans for a CF intake/ power upgrade?

josec70 · 12-12-2020, 05:51 PM

Beautiful build brother!!!

Well thought out and tastefully done. Stance is spot-on as are the 21's.

Yea definitely I'm actually currently debating between an Eventuri or GruppeM intake and awaiting for a tune to fit the 21' M5!

Blindside_137 · 12-15-2020, 01:44 PM

Just saw the video of your car on YouTube with the new FI-R.

You have convinced me the LCI is beautiful. What an outstanding looking and sounding M5
