Question

Have you checked the speed rate of your Nexen tires? I'm worried, IMO they are not for M6 sustained speed.

Palomequet I think the tires are working out fine and are the Nexen 3000 rated 97Y, which means up too speed of 186 mph. I have a different setup for when I decide to go to the track.

Roadrage,

Looks great! I am looking at 22's but concerned with fitment as I already have HR springs installed. What is size/offset of wheels? Do they rub in the back?

Also, where did you get the badging trim items? (IE trunk lever and m6 logo)

Thanks!

jvise I have to get back with you for the exact numbers for the offset but I have 22x9.5 in front and 22x11 in rears. I am also lowered on h&r springs and no rubbing even with four adults in the car. The badges I got from IND and just got an overlay kit to change the color of the M stripes.

Looks good! Hmm, wondering why you need spacers on your custom aftermarkets . What size spacers did you use?

Ice7, I think I was being a little more conservative at first did not want the tires to rub and I knew I I was lowering the car. So after seen the car lowered I knew I could of went a little more aggressive, so I added 15mm in the rear and 10mm in the front.

Ahh, gotcha. Looks great nonetheless . Where in VA are you located? I'm up north in the Fairfax vicinity. I don't see too many M6's in my area
