The answers you got before were all based on ORIGINAL 166 style BMW wheels, manufactured by BBS in Germany.
Yes, yes, yes. You can run them with NO problem at all. As I and others said before, just choose the correct tyre sizes and not the M5 tyre sizes, as these would be +5% out on rolling radius and circumference.

i've been trying to locate a shop that carry the 166 replica's that "are not"made in taiwan. (heard lots of bad things about quality/finish) to no avail. think you can shoot over the contact info of where you got your german made replicas?? if the price comes close to the oem's.., i might as well get the real deal.
www.bmwmstyle.co.uk do the originals including tyres for around 1500,- I think

good point. My M5 (166 style) replicas are made in Germany and I have never had the slightest problem with them. Perfect finish, no vibration, nothing.

Man,
I can see how the original poster is confused. He asked about OEM 166s not replicas. Please any further discussion about replicas put in in a new thread.
I have the OEM rims on my 545. They will also fit your 530.
