Thank you to all the members for your compliments.

I decided on the red pinstripe as a subtle accent for the calipers. It came out as I wanted which is understated and not heavy.

I do like the new stance with the 305's and 275's. Really looking forward to the KW's.

Cheers

What suspension is the car dropped on now?

I dont know how much lower you can go without looking strange on an M5.

The M5 is right now on H&R springs. It sat very nicely before but with the shorter rear tire set up now (305/25/20 = 26.00") opposed to the prior 285/30/20 = 26.73" it increased the gap.
In addition to lowering and increased aggressive stance the KW V3 should really flatten and level the handling.
Moton also makes coilovers for the M5 but nearly double the price.

Cheers

Great choice.... The time attack look is getting a bit played but at least you did it differently with the gunmetal time attack..

The wheels look perfect on the M5
