Default E60 M5 report

Have you read this http://www.m5board.com/articles.php?id=34 ?

Really nice pics and a great writeup all in all. Takes a while too load though...

Enjoy

Not really, actually one of my favourite wheel designs. But there are some pics with Hartge wheels on. Maybe you`ll find those more attractive.

Will post them later

Edit: here they are





Compared to the originals

Anyone see 5th Gear's review on the M5?..."We are about to test one of the greatest cars in the world." Yeah, Tiff was talking about the M5. I think it is a beautiful piece of engineeiring. Hands down a 'silent' head turner.

I liked the wheels a lot. Although I thought the E60 Sport's wheels look better. But these M wheels are pretty good.

Very nice write up and cool pictures as well.

Thanks!!!

S-Class is for old people.. And yeah it might be quick but on straight lines.. Handling is what the M5 is really about..
