Hey Vic...did you run spacers with this setup? Your offset is perfect!
Just got the 12 E63 and looking for some wheels. TIA

If you are lowered... yes no doubt. PSS are too square and my offset was literally on the fender but no rubbing (rear).

A recommendation.

If you are trying to get to Vic55's stance from any of his cars, make sure you take tire brand into consideration.

Vic's setup on all his cars is point on. Everything lines up just right. Don't expect to use different tires or configuration and have the same results.

Vic does a lot of calculation and testing and trial and error to get the amazing fitments he does. If you decide to get a PSS or PS2 tire, it will not work. Will need to adjust the offsets at least 5mm.

This is why Vic is such an asset to the community. He is very open about what he does to achieve his results. Which I'm sure he knows, takes a lot of time and testing.
