265/35 Falcon ZE522 tyres at the back.

Fits perfectly :rollsmile:

I also saw a guy with a Black 2006 E60 BMW M5...he had a sticker on "www.bmwcarclub.co.za"
Very nice chap! Damn that V10 is beast.

thanks guys.

Lol...now I'm broke... the bank manager showed me the middle finger when I tried to buy a R2.99 ice cream :roflol: :roflol: :roflol:

I don't know what I'm going to do with the old wheels.
I guess I can use the 225/40 tyres on my GTi.

Lekker Rommel! Looking forward to see the wheels tomorrow. You must bed those tyres in now so they can take some nice shape :)

It's looking way better than the previous 17" setup. Loving the wheels on the supra as well

wow the new wheels work well on the car :D

have not looked at this thread for a while... so missed the whole bracket thing... I have some Hi grade epoxy that may make the bracket more secure... Its the kind of stuff they use to bond the cars together for the Dakar rally and is also widely used on aircraft...

How hot do you think that part of the engine gets?

Looking good man.

I must agree with you and Herr, leave them as they are for now, but the way you want to change the colour will really look awesome with the whole look of the car. :thumbs:
