Need more low lol

looks dope. glad this went a lot further than the LS.

Nice, I think you should drop the rear more...

[QUOTE=brainneeded;413492]looks dope. glad this went a lot further than the LS.[/QUOTE]
 
Yes and no. The LS had full coil overs but i will agree that it is going along better than the LS. Its mainly because its the first build the wife and I are agreed on a few things.

Im working on dropping the rear by the Auto Fashion meet soon. 
 
FYI still not sure bout keeping the wheels. Its mainly for the low offsets on a BMW wagon lol

Love the E39 wagons! Been searching for one around here for a while and can't find them. Keep up the good work!

Looks great!  I love Bimmer Wagons!

Nice... I was trying to find me a e39 540i, but hard to find... So I opted for a 2010 Audi a4 avant/wagon... 

And those e39 can handle some low, low offsets...

yeah ive heard. imma try and do some 19x10 front and 19x11 rear maybe 10 or 08 offsett. I gotta search more. But I might have some other wheels by the AF VIP meet
 
its just hard because the rear has coils not air.

What Yall think? 19x9.5 all around. the offset is +20 all around. But Imma add 15mm spacers frobt and 20mm back. The front tires are 225 35 19 and rear is 245,35 19.  Gonna get an alignment and add some spacers. Air has been priced and gathering the ends, thanks Freddie at autofashion and the guys and next year, a lot more will b added.

More to come

Looks good. However, I personally would have went with your first idea of running 11's in the rear rather than running 20mm spacers. Still looks good though

The 11 rear will be done after the air bag set up. And I gotta find the right wheel for the look and drop

Gotcha!

Love the wagon.  I am coming around to these more and more!  Can't wait to see what else you have in store---

New wheels 19x10 f and 19x11 rear. still working on offsets lol 
I'm taking time out to research lol :biggthumpup:

Seen it rolling last week and I think I'm riding in it today after work lol
Front fitment is DOPE!

Ewwww, once that rear comes down fitment will be on point
