New E53 Coupe in Starling Blue

My new 2022 E53 Coupe. Thinking about spacers. Any suggestions? Are they safe/good for the suspension?







I like this pic because it shows how deep and dynamic this color is.

I ordered my E53 in Moonlight White but now I'm thinking I might change to Starling Blue. That's really sharp!

Thanks for the pics

Well..

Beautiful color.
As regards your wheels, spacing is only a small part of your problem. You biggest problem is the diameter, too small with way out whack aspect ratio, and a super weak offset that's just way wrong for such a beautiful car. Find someone who knows what they're doing, write a check, and the adjust your ride height down just a bit....

Lol. Not really. 20 inch rims are big enough. Only complaint is the front end wheels could stick out a little more. Car looks great. Personal choice cannot be matter of fact.

I wasn't suggesting anything larger...

just something "stronger". Those flat faces, combined with the black finish, really hold your visual appeal back. You're right, 20s are plenty big enough, it's just the way they are positioned in your fender, combined with a ride height that's just a bit too high...that's what's holding it back. Good luck in your quest...

I would love to buy one of these for my wife, but she insists on having a manual. They look fantastic.
