Exclamation Upgrade Spacers!

I upgraded my 20mm Macht Schnell spacer to H&R 25mm DRA spacers. I must said, the quality and ride is much better or it's because I switch to non rft tires make a huge different too. But the H&R spacers some how makes me feel a little more comfortable, I guess is because of their quality craftsmanship, beside that, it allow me to use my oem bmw lut nuts and also I added a oem lock nuts for extra protection on those wheels.

H&R part # 50757254 TRAK + DRA Wheel Spacer with Adaptor Bolt
retail: $149.00
Torque specs: 100 lbs

OEM BMW lock nuts with key
retail: $120.00
Lock nuts torque specs: 95-100 lbs

Tires: Michelin Pilot Super Sport
specs: 265/35/20 on 20x9 35.et

here's a few picture, enjoy

Got the wrong 44" Thule fairing that doesn't fit to the Aeroblade, so replace with a current Thule Fairing. It reduce so much wind noise...

Car looks good, but I'm not a fan of the M5 emblems. I personally like debadging, but not when you try to make it something it isn't. Personal opinion.

one of the great things about doing the M5 conversion is the front end is wider and more aggressive looking. might have to revisit this idea just from a pure aesthetics point of view

It's cheaper now since there's more wreck M5 on the market, back when I started, it wasn't easy finding parts, so most of it was order new. But yeah, I enjoy modding and working on my car, and that's something I look forward to doing when I'm off work.
