~*(PIX)*~ NEW WHEELS for my 450HP thingy ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Hey all:

Just fitted these on my 540i. Thought I might share some pictures.

Still keeping the 19" AC Type III wheels. Just want to try something different.

Here are the pix, comments are welcome as always























I will update these wheels on my "MODIFICATION" Page soon @

Not much different, why bother?

he doesn't know, I am going all in on that bet. of course now he is making afew phone calls.

LOOKY EVERYONE.......JIMMY SPENT MORE OF DADDY'S MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GOOD JOB, JIMMY.......!!!!!!!!!!

(can anyone understand why a grown man wants to be called "Jimmy"?)

Here's the deal, Jimmy: Send me $1000.00 and i'll be your friend for 3 months. That's a deal, no matter where you look!! I'll email you, chat like buds and even compliment you on your cars, bikes and new purchases, like i really give a shit. Actually, for $500.00 extra, i'll even give a shit. I'll honestly and sincerely give a shit about what ever it is that you write to me about. Shit, i'll even give you my cellular phone number and you can call me and talk to me about......whatever it is that makes you happy. keep in mind, any homoerotic crap and it's all over.

I draw the line as well, when you start bring that dog of yours into the gig and want me to listen to your stories about how he saved your life, or how you can't keep peanut butter in the house with him around. outside of that......chat all you want. now, of course, i'll get your standard line about "Haters" and whatnot, but think about it..........

Those do look nicer than the older wheels. I like.

The wheels Toxic posted are AC Schnitzer Type III's. Very nice wheels. The ones Jimmy posted as being 'new' look exactly like stock BMW wheels off the last body style 750. 7 series wheels will bolt right onto a 5 series and vice versa.

Jimmy is an idiot.

This is the package he had done to his 540:

Part #: SE39-40LS3M

Price: $34016.00

Labor Units: 652.0

Emission Status: 50 State Emission Legal

List of Included Items: Supercharger System; High Flow Throttle Body; Free Flow Exhaust; Strut Tower Brace; Shock Tower Brace; Stage 3 Suspension System; Stage 2 Dinan/Brembo Front and Rear Brake Conversion; 18" Lightweight Forged Wheels (Front: 18x9" Rear: 18x9.5"); Stage 1 Lightweight Clutch Assembly; Signature Floor Mats; Serial Numbered Dinan S3 Plaque; Dinan Deck Lid Badge.
Special Notes: A 3.15 Limited Slip Differential is available at additional cost.
Note: Due to the installation of larger fuel injectors for the supercharger system, the fuel consumption and range data displayed will be inaccurate.

Peak Horsepower: 412 @ 5800 rpm
Peak Horsepower Gain: 134 @ 5800 rpm
Peak Torque: 397 lb/ft @ 4500 rpm
Peak Torque Gain: 121 lb/ft @ 5800 rpm
Point Value: 10


The Dinan S3 offers a tempting combination of supercharged power and handling that is second to none. The S3 for manual 540s features Dinan’s Stage 1 Lightweight Clutch Assembly for further improvement in acceleration and quicker throttle response, as well as a higher clamp load to better harness the supercharged engine’s power. The Stage 3 Suspension System features front Camber Plates for closer-to-neutral handling and improved turn-in. The huge Dinan/Brembo Stage 2 front and rear brake conversion is included in the S3 program, ensuring that your 540 has the necessary stopping power for a 400 horsepower vehicle. The 18" lightweight forged Dinan Performance Wheels and wide sticky tires further enhance cornering capabilities and reduce understeer (275/35 and 265/35-18 tires sold separately).

Tint those windows Jimmy - seriously

and how do you like the V1?

I LOVE mine- that damn thing has picked off cops from nearly 3/4 of a mile away.

Instant on is the only radar that may get me.

Sure look like the stock E38 rims that i have on my car.

I know this might let the cat out of the bag...... But I have a friend who just might be able to get a clear pic of Jimmy out of the reflection of his paint.
Don't you just love Technology!!!!!!!!

So sorry, I seen the post but didn't go to Ferrari chat room. They dislike him more over there than the folks on this site....
