Very cool to see the side by side pics of the M60 vs M5, really illustrates where the body work has been bulked up

I have the same wheels and think they look 100x better in person than they did on the webpage during the build.
Got an M60 on order in Fire Red with 21"s Roll on June!

Picked it up a week ago.

M60, frozen deep grey, ultimate pack and a few other things. Coming from an X4M Comp so quite a change

Thanks for the pictures! I don't see the rear window spoiler or the BMW center cap stickers. I guess they are future additions. Please post more pics after adding them.

Thanks for the picture! Nice wheels - they look like they would be lighter than the stock 21" wheels. I wonder if you get better range because your wheels are lighter.

It’s weird to be honest. The car only let me select from it prefix tire size options or other and did its own figures. Sometime it’s 265 to 292. So, honestly don’t know how accurate it is. Also, my tires came from my Lexus 20” setup. Which is 245/35/20 vs 245/40/20 (front) and 275/30/20 vs 275/35/20 ( rear) cause me to loose about an inch in diameter. This front tires were still in mint condition and the rears are new. I gave the wheels to my boy with an Rc-F sport but kept my tires. But I will increase size when the tires are done. But I love the wheels. The satin black tint looks black in low light and like a brownish/black in daylight. The decal helps gave it contrast and a color relation to the paint of the car. Plus it looks like a bmw wheel. I will retake new pics once I get the window spoiler added too. Which I thought was more of a aero vibe than a standard spoiler on the trunk. Hopefully my idea works lol

Surely you don't like it as much as your iX?

paprmkr Looks like your car is famous! I just checked the pictures in the myBMW app for the EA charging station near the Camarillo Outlets and your car is featured in one of the pictures there. Must be your car because it has the trim lines on the side, the carbon performance parts and your new wheels.

Check out the pictures below. Do you charge there often?

I do like the “car” feeling vs the CUV feeling. It feels more planted to the road.
I don’t like that it’s 4” longer yet has less room.

That’s a cool set of mods - neat putting quad exhausts on an i5 ;-)
