Dan Wagener reccomended me BC Racing because he has them on his e53 and if he says they are good, they are good....and if i may ask why 18x10 size? what tyre dimensions are you going to use? o.O

i am also going for coilovers, but on 20x10 front and 20x11 rear with style 214s

thank you for the input i wanted to try 18x10 just to make it look a little different to others & i think it might make it look a little more low and about tire dimension i dont know yet but i got a friend with a tire shop who is going to help me try i few tires until we find the right ones
