new wheels, new stance: BMW E39 M5.
it was a brisk, clear, non-windy day in LA on saturday - perfect weather to work on the car. specs are: 19x9.5 +20 (+10mm spacer) / 19x10.5 +22. slight stretch & poke + another ~.5" lower in the front. i'm loving the stance now!
as a former cr-x, hatch, and coupe owner, i'll always have a soft spot in my heart for my favorite fwd car manufacturer - i may, in fact, be picking up a cr-x to daily soon...
enjoy the pics!

Re: new wheels, new stance: BMW E39 M5.
didn't have much of a choice given the size and offset of the wheels, but i don't mind. they ride well, they look great, and i'm happy.
how've you been, man? LONG time. still have the white hatch? i regret ever having gotten rid of the cr-x - so much so, that i may be building another quite soon.

I looked at your screen name and was like, "Is this the same phan from waay back when?" haha..as for me, same ol' stuff man..still got the hatch but wouldnt mind selling and moving on to something else. It pretty much just sits in the garage on the battery tender, lol.

Looks dope af. LM-R are my favorite BBS 
I looked everywhere for a pic of an E39 on LM-R, finally found them 
. Maybe I'll rock Advan RS-D on mine to keep from stealing your idea lol. Might be a bit cheaper too!
My next car is going to be an E39 M5 haha. I love my E34 540i/6 but M5's (especially E39's) are one of my dream cars. It's cool seeing another BMW fan on H-T
