is this a deal or what?
a buddy of mine asked me if i wanted to swap with him, his SSR GT-03 wheels(they are the real deals, i checked the face and it has SSR stamped on it) for my stock 7 series style 95 wheels, for the SSR's diameter size 19" with 8.5" front and 9.5" rear, and +18 offsets, half inch short on all 4 as the style 95's were 9" front and 10" rear but it's all good, has a gun metal color face with polished lip, i will have pics up shortly...what size spacers should i run? i don't want that over Hella Flush look, just flush, what do you guys think? did i come up or what!? where can i get SSR center caps? the Gt-03s have BMW center caps right now...

U might not even need a spacer, maybe 10mm spacer on the front and 18 mm on the rear is just about right...just have to put them on to confirm and note that bore size on the E39's are 74.1 iirc (bigger than all the series except for the X5) unless its beed bored out...

You should be able to run in the teens for the fronts, but the rears should be around +20-25...otherwise, you're gonna need a fender roll....

before the widebody on the wagon...i ran a 19x10 et 10 in the back, also did a 20x10 et 18... with very very minor fender rolling and i was pretty dumped on v2s. with that 9.5 u got going, u can easily run et 0 to +5, no problem. run some 10-15mm spacers in the back and u'll be decently flushed, not hella flush.
