BTW, congrats upon reaching "MBWorld God!" status. What a post wh**e you are, ha ha. I haven't seen this one before.
How funny that you would be labeled a God with Hyperion in your username, lol.
Yeah, strange title lol
I chose the moniker Hyperion from the 'oddest' moon in the solar system, not the god as I do not see myself as a deity haha
And yes, 'post huora' accurate

Hey all, back again with an update on my '18 E63s. Sure, the 5-spoke 20" wheels are cool and all, but I wanted a bit of a unique look, so I decided to shop around HRE and landed on the Classic 300 wheels. Here are the specs:
Color: Brushed Dark Clear center w/ Polished Dark Clear lip finish. Front: 20x10.0 ET 10 LS: 2.5 (going to fit with Michellin PS4S size 275/35/20) Rear: 20x11.0 ET 52 LS:2.5 (going to fit wiht Michellin PS4S size 305/30/20)
Here's a few pictures of the arrival, along with my current setup (factory 5-spokes, which I will fit with full-winter tires and swap when the season starts)
The wheels are currently off to get a ceramic coat for cleanliness -- afterwards, I will mount and balance the PS4S. Stay tuned for some more pics post-ceramic coating and post-tire mounting
Very nice!!! Congrats on the purchase. Love those wheels and can't wait to see them on your ride!! Take lots of pics for us!!
Looks like HRE has stepped up their game in the presentation department too......I never got my center caps in a cool box like that, or with the hair nets either

Bro we’re from the days when they shipped in Amazon boxes and the caps came in a zip lock bag.
Very nice wheels OP. Please post proper pictures. If you post blackberry pics of your insane set up I will petition for permaban.

The weather is a bit thunderstormy and crap here, but I'll still give the car a wash and bring my proper professional camera (sony a7rii) out to a couple spots and take proper professional pictures for y'all. Expect some updates later tonight.
These aren't the pics I promised (I will be taking those later tonight around sunset/nighttime), but the tires got mounted, the weather cleared up, and I just gave it a fresh wash. Here's a little sneak peek to tide you over until the real pics come.
When I went in to get the tires mounted, I reset my lowering module to factory just to be safe. There was no rubbing on factory suspension, so I lowered to to the "lowered" setting on my module, which is 40mm I believe. I only got rub once and that was at full right-turn lock going up a steep driveway. Overall, very happy with the fitment and look.
The only time I got rubbing was with a 40mm suspension lowering and a full right-lock turn going up a steep driveway. Other than that, I've had no issues with rubbing.
The lip size is 2.5, which is the default I believe (here is the official spec from my quote) 2 Wheel Front CL300_61 High Offset Profile - 20 x10.0 ET 10 LS:2.5
2 Wheel Rear CL300_61 High Offset Profile - 20 x11.0 ET 52 LS:2.5

Nice...2.5inch lips both front and rear is decent!! Love the mesh wheels...always will be a classic look and never gets old!!
Do you have any rear end shots to see how wide those 305/30 looks from the back view?

Hope they stay clean!
