Prior Design presents a new wide body styling kit for the BMW M6. The finished car kit is called the PD550 and features some revisions for the V10-powered M6. The tuner did not mess with the front end too much, preferring to keep it as close to the familiar simple and elegant look as possible.
The aerodynamic kit includes revised front wings, new side skirts and new rear fender flares. A hand-made PD silencer accompanies four stainless steel pipes said to please the ear even from miles away. The body was widened by some 80mm to improve handling and offer sportier dynamics. If this is too much Prior Design has a second complete but non-wide kit called the PD450.
A choice of two wheel/ tyre combinations are possible; FA 9.0 J x 20 / RA 10.5 J x 20 with 255/35 ZR 20 / 285/30 ZR 20 tyres or FA 9.0 J x 21 / RA 10.5 J x 21 with 255/30 ZR 21 / 295/25 ZR 21. The suspension can be lowered by up to 30mm up front and 25mm at the rear which gives the PD550 a real squatting position.
