New winter tire setup just came in!

I have a 2006 E53 4.8is in Black. I will have pictures up this week after I detail it. I decided to go with the 275/40R-20 Bridgestone Blizzak w/ 20x9 Bremmer Kraft BR05. Can't wait to put them on! Too bad its not even November.



Only took a picture of one of them. I didn't want to unwrap the rest but you get the picture.

Your winter rims are bigger and look nicer than my summer rims. I'm also starting to look for winter tires now that it is under 60 degrees at certain times of the day.

I'm regretting not buying winter tires/rims after buying all season Conti's and inheriting a wheel shake that I've spent over $1,200 trying to get rid of....so far.

Thats odd, are they balanced correctly? Rotors warped?

Got ya. I figured it was a little early. Just wanted to subscribe so I didn't miss them later.

Will look great! i bet spacers may be a necessity. I run 8.5" wide style 87s (275/40/R20) around for the winter.. put 20mm spacer in the rear. Because of your flares on the 4.8is i'd do 25-30 in the rear...
