rears are et25 and 10" wide
they sit just right, i sometimes think the fronts could do with a small spacer but can be bothered messing, it handles so well for what it is now

I want one!! I dont think it would be sensible though doing circa 300 miles a week in one.
if you dont drive like a tool everywhere itll do 350ish miles to a tank, and with comfort and ease, my wife has a 2008 e60 525d and my 2001 e39 m5 is just as comfortable with more toys to drive, just costs lots more to run!

Do you have a full spec or project thread for this?
There is a rebuilt & wrapped one on Pistonheads that caught my attention.
thanks!
there is a project thred on here but i dont update it much, full spec is:
engine:
Evolve mafless intakes with BMC filters
evolve/supersprint exhaust manifolds
Supersprint decats
Custom 2.5" center pipes remove x-pipe
Supersprint magnum back boxes
Evolve Alpha N (mafless) stage 4 remap
secondary air pump delete
Suspension:
X5 bottom arm bushes
BC Racing inverted damper coilovers and adjustable top mounts
Brakes:
Stoptech 6 pot front brakes
Stoptech 4 pot rear brakes
Wheels:
19" BBS LM's 8.5" fronts and 10" rears
Bodywork bits:
Carbon rear finned diffuser
fog lights surrounds with brake cooling ducts
Entertainment:
Retrofitted factory bluetooth
Retrofitted factory digital TV tuner
DVD based satnav
widescreen display
DVD player
Ipod intergration
Focal speakers in the front
JBL DSP amp/processor to replace factory DSP system
think thats about it! over the years iv replaced a few bits on it and had paintwork sorted and recently a fair bit of welding, bits iv replaced are just maintenance parts and the headlights (massive cost there!)
value for money they are a great car, but if you get a duff one itll cost you a fair chunk to put right! sometimes i wish i looked around more before buying this one.....

That's not bad considering petrol is cheaper and I only get 500 miles to a full tank in my 330d.
Love it by the way not sure whether you are back to your old ways selling double glazing
