With the overwhelming craze surrounding the BMW’s E92 335i and its new 1-series offering, some of BMW’s bigger brethren has been ignored in the media light. Truth be told however there are plenty of 5-series and even 6-series out there that deserve their fair share of coverage. Enter Ace’s 5-series that we were fortunate enough to spot while stopping by iForged’s facilities. The first thing that naturally caught our eyes was the wheels on the 5er. Ace and iForged not only stepped it up with an aggressive fitment, but our eyes did not deceive us – those were 21s on each corner. iForged stepped it up with their Sprint model for this M5 by outfitting it with 21×9 in the front and 21×10.5 in the rear with a semi-gloss black finish. Toyo’s T1R protects these massive wheels with their 255/30/21 and 295/25/21 sized rubber.
Complementing the beautiful wheel setup on the exterior is a full Rieger body kit. The front bumper was custom fitted to match the OEM M5 fenders. AC Schnitzer styling plays their role in the rear with their roof and trunk spoiler. The rest of the M5 transformation was done with the fenders and grilles.
Hidden behind each of the iForged wheels, one is quick to notice the bright Porsche Speed Yellow Rotora brake calipers. The front has been outfitted with 8-piston pieces along with Rotora’s 15-inch cross drilled rotors while the rears are handled with 4-pitson calipers and the same sized rotors. Handling additional performance for the 5-series is a custom Magnaflow quad exhaust with 3.5-inch tips and an RPI ram air intake scoop. On the inside is carbon fiber trim and custom iForged floor mats.
This 5-series is exactly what we dig in a luxury build – simple, clean and straight to the point with a few things to set it off from the crowd. Best of all it shows off what iForged is all about with their product.
