Supermerkin,

Yeah, they are 19x8.5 and 19x9.5. I decided to keep the stock size tires and got some Firestone Indy 500s summer tires. Will use the stock 19's with run flats for winter tires.

Decided to not go with 20's as I wanted to keep the unsprung weight down. Bigger is not always better performing. Better looking for sure....

I have some H&R Sport Springs that will be installed next week. 1.4" drop in front and 1.3" in back.

Darren
opted to keep the stock wheel and tire setup for now. I have the Dinan springs and power stop z23 drilled and slotted rotors being delivered tomorrow. I have a CF rear deck spoiler, CF v style diffuser, v style front lip, and side skirt extensions installed already. I think I'm going to Plasti dip my wheels gloss black while they're off to do the brakes/suspension

Second day of ownership

Not the greatest photo, but I just wanted to start with something. Winter wheels are on, will spend the winter looking for summer wheels.

Here is my 2016 BMW 535i Sport. In my opinion, this is the last of the drivers 5 series. I was going to get a 2019 540i and it drove like a Lexus GS350. dead..So I bought the last year of the F10 and could not be happier. Here are some before and after. I still have the brake to do and the exhaust (which will be done tomorrow)

Understandable. In OC, I have yet to encounter a steep driveway. Speedbumps, I have not had a problem with.

On previously lowered vehicles, I have lost a few front lips and bumpers. In most cases, they were objects on the freeway that did harm. I still lower my vehicles ;-)

I find this comment to be absolutely laughable. GS350 was rated the best handling sedan against its class competitors by Motor Trend and by countless of people who test drove these two back to back. Saying the 19 540i handles like the GS350 actually means that it handles better than the F10 (do a search and you will find countless of reviews in favoring of the GS handling) as many have compared the handling to the old E60 which was far more of a driver's car than the successor F10.

Nonetheless, nice ride.

My '14 Alpine N55x is pretty bland compared to others' F10s here but it's just right for me.

Bought this highway cruiser CPO 2 years ago with mocha nappa ventilated contour seats, LEDs, DA+, headup display, auto highbeams, softclose doors, ceramic controls, side shades, power rear shade, HK sound. I swapped its 19" wheels and RFTs for 18" Mich AS3+.

Maybe boring but comfy!

This is my new F11 (new for me of course hahah) I've replaced an older F10.

I have since those pictures installed the black kidney grilles, and my satin black wheels are going in next week too! The wheels are the ones on the last picture on my old F10...

I've also designed and cut a vinyl sticker with the Union Jack in frosted vinyl, I like how it looks on the back window and being vinyl I can always remove it later if I don't like it anymore...

I am loving the car so far!!

That's a beauty. I had an E91 and miss that there's no F11 in the USA.

I had no idea that you guys don't get F11 until a few days ago, that's not good! I love mine!!
