"Quite dark isn't it? Almost... black. Yes, I shall have to get the black out".

Looks great, but.............needs dropping like a stone,I don't think I've seen bigger tyre - arch gaps on a car, apart from a 4x4!

What size tyres are they?, and what's the offset of the wheels?

I love the car, what an awesome engine and cabin combo.

I do prefer the original wheels myself but thats personal taste I'm not that keen on black wheels.

Overkill on the black and that BigFoot 4x4 look doesn't really work for me - but hey, its your car and your happy and thats all that matters!

I like the car a lot... although I agree it needs way fatter wheels and the customary drop. Some nice iforge 3 piece wheels in black in my opinion... Have you considered a nice splitter for the front? Like Dave (Mega) says, evotechnik is a fountain of knowledge for modification ideas...check it out.

Oh watch out for some "haters" here though bro....

Only thing I really don't like are the blacked out windows. Bit too gansta
With all the black, you're really going to draw attention to the numberplate so hopefully you've got something cool.....like DRV65RS

thanks for all the feedback guys,

The tyres should be 245/40/19 front and 275/35/19 but i have 235/35/19 front and 265/30/19 rears so the gap is coming from there otherwise they are perfect size, they were on a e92 m3 before i got them.

The drive is beautiful and for a 2004 with 55K on the clock she drives sweet 10 times better and my 335d but probably twice the fuel!

Car looks great.
But get the right tyres on, will look and feel much better. Almost an inch of rubber lost on the sidewall, oh, and your speedo will be out by about 3mph so be careful.
I also think that a refinish in graphite would make them look better.

Great car but spoilt by cheap replicas. Get the real M6 wheels and do the job properly or change them back to the BMW wheels that are designed for 645.

Love it but I agree with the others' comments - get the right size tyres on, and definitely consider a gunmetal coloured refurb for those alloys, I've never been convinced about the black/black combination.
