Picture day with my son

Not too many nice days left here in MI so my son and I decided to take a spirited ride and find some new picture spots. A balmy 56F but sunny today and a good excuse to spend some qulity time with my son and my mistress.

Question

Nice pictures car looks great.

What size wheels are those 19" 54mm offset? What size rear tire?

I think I have the same wheels 19" and it rubs some times with rear bumper . I got 295 rear tires wheels have 54mm offset I was wondering if I reduce the size to 285 or 275 it might cure the issue? any suggestion?

Try rubbing some plastic polish on the 5's headlights. 3M makes some great stuff. It'll get rid of that haze and make 'em look brand new again.

Thanks guys.

The wheels on the 996 are 18 X 9s and 18 X 11's. I run 295s in the rear with no rubbing.

The 5 series is my son's 'starter' car. Its a 528iA. He has visions of granduer (like we all did back then) and wants all sorts of modifications. He does have a set of Angel Eyes and Xenons to install as well as some other trinkets.
