I pretty sure there's only one engine for the 520d, but even if it says 'twin', it only has one turbo.

Got my winter tires mounted on the OEM 19" 351M wheels, but will wait a few weeks before I put them on the car.

I put 245/40/19 tires on the the staggered 351M, so the one on the left is the 9" wheel, while the one on the right is the 8.5" wheel.
Only slightly more stretch on the 9" wheel.

Finally got around to order and install the sway bar upgrade, the M5 front sway bar and M550d rear sway bar.

They're 26mm in the front and 16mm in the rear, an increase of 2mm for both over the M-sport sway bars I had.

Significantly less bodyroll.

Do you find the M Performance pedals to be slippery when your feet are wet from rain, etc? I had similar pedals in my E46 and regretted installing them because of that. They look great though.

No, haven't felt slippery yet.
The brake pedal have rubber slates too, but the gas pedal has a smooth surface.

How does the car feel/handle after this upgrade? Noticeable difference?

And, doesn't the M5 rear sway bar fit? I believe that the M5 has a 18mm rear sway bar.

Yes, is has noticeable less bodyroll. The rear M5 sway bar doesn't fit.

Nice! Now i know how my Blizzak snow tires will look like on my staggered 351M wheels.

One thing i didn't like about my BMW Performance pedals on my last car was that depending on what type of sneakers I had on sometimes the rubber grooves on the brake pedal would sorta stick to the grips of my sneakers (95 air max )

I've had the 351M winters on for a few weeks, and shot some pics after a proper wash today. And I've just put on some spacers too, 10mm F and 18mm R.
