Personally think the 343s look dated on the M5, Id vote for the 601ms. I also dont like black wheels on the M5, but thats just me.

Think you should get the 343Ms in Liquid Black. They are BBS Forged which is much better than the other wheels. They also look better.

Watch out for dealerships powder coating cold forged wheels into black. Depending on the metallurgy of the wheel that may weaken the wheel.
Also, anyone have any suggestions / experience on stickier rubber for the rear that isn't horrible in the rain? I'm not used to traction control kicking in at 30mph - I've almost always exclusively driven 4wd cars in the 500+ HP range haha.

Just gloss. If you want matte you would need to do it yourself.

2. You bought the wrong car 3. The M5 is perfect 4. Repeat. Just kidding of course; did you have a chance to scroll through my thread on "560HP with RWD?". Very entertaining. |

So a summer tire is the tire of choice for summer, rain and damp conditions. And need Winter tires for snowy conditions. Internet is a wonderful thing :-) |
