My Ride: E92 320i MSport (currently 330i loaner from BMW UK!)
VW Touareg 3.0TDi
Lotus Elise S2 Sport 135
Newbie here!
Currently running an E92 320i - well actually I've got a 330i at the moment courtesy of BMW UK but thats a long story.......
Anyway looking at reorganising our "fleet" so the E92 will go, and I will get an E61 520d M Sport Auto, wife's Touareg will be sold and she will have something smaller - TT perhaps - and finally, my Lotus Elise will be staying!!!!
Anyway, hello to all, get ready for various specification queries!
First one, anyone know what other wheels can be specced as dealer fit when ordering new in the UK?
Thanks

to the forum chris. I've seen some UK/Euro members with e61's with 172 and 167 style wheels. May find a few using the upper right search bar...
other sections to check would be the parts,mods, accessories section as well as the e61 discussion area. GL with your upcoming purchase, keep us posted.
