Default Rims for my black 04 530i!!

Hey Im new here so thought I would make a post aha so I just got my first e60, thoroughly impressed but looking for nice rims was wondering if anyone could suggest any for me, keep in mind I'm 21 so not the most expensive please I was thinking alpina b7 reps but I'm not sure what the best size would be (19?) or the style 410 but I can't find any reps for them if someone could I'd be grateful thanks!

First off welcome to the forum and congratulations on your purchase! Owning a BMW 5 at the age of 21 must be exciting.

I vote for 19" Style 95 wheels. (or replicas)


Be sure to do a search and check out some members rides for ideas and advice. Good luck!

This site lists the proper OEM styles for your car: All BMW wheel styles 5 E60+ | BmwStyleWheels.com From there, decide what you like and then do a Craigslist search. You can find some pretty good buys there. I'd stick with 18's or 19's. The Style 410's are too big and the Style 95's are really too wide. If you decide to go replica, post what you've found here first and we'll try to give you advice on whether they're any good or not.

Happy shopping!

Default Looking for help with rims :D

So I'm leaning towards getting style 410 reps (if they make any which I don't think they do) or b7 reps I was wondering if anyone could help me find these online and if you have any other suggestions for rims that would look good on a black e60 prefer the concave and spokey look also what color would you suggest I'm thinking just black aha. Thanks!

Also I can't afford expensive rims so please keep that in mind haha

I would advice to avoid replica, buy one and buy the right one. Original wheels comes with strength in case you miss to avoid a potholes and such... replicas not so much.

be sure to purchase a lowering springs or coilovers when fitting your new wheels and get an alignment
