thx a lot guys. the 128s are a teese. in my country, the roads are really bad.too many bumps, too many ups and downs. a lot of hole. will 245/40 R18(non-RFT of course for extra comfort) affect comfort dramatically?
will it also decrease performance harshly?
i have a 520i.
the 128s ( if i pick them, ill install replica's which are 18").
thx for all ur help guys

For those who have rocky roads, r u feeling discomfort with ur 18" or 19" rims? coz the ruber is either 40 or 35, less cushonning on the suspensions? is the ride getting rockier or less conforting?
coz we all know thats y we mostly got E60, LUXURY & COMFORTTTTT

My Ride: 2005 525i : Alpine White, Steptronic, Black Interior with Amethyst Leather & Popular Grain Brown, 17" 122-Style Rims, Adaptive Bi-Xenon Headlights, Auto Dimming & Folding Mirrors, Advanced A/C, Sports Steering Wheel, Electrically Adjustable Steering Column, Extended Lighting Package, PDC, Sliding Armrest, Bus Navi, Hi-Fi Sound System (MP3 DVDs), CD Changer, Rear Sunshades..
MODS:M-tech front bumper, Painted Grill, Installed Aux-In, Garage Door Opener (Overhead Compartement), ///M Steering wheel, Wood hand brake trim, Wood gear-shift lever. 35% Tint all around..
Got, ACS Roof Spoiler, but not installed..
i didnt get the e60 for comfort (if i wanted comfort i would have gone for a lexus) and i hope most people didnt buy the e60 for comfort cause if they did they bought the wrong car... 
if you live in an area with really bad roads and alot of holes in the road, the last thing you want are replica rims, they are going to break(in the end, you will buy new rims, or go back to your OEMs.). i suggest OEM, atleast you can drive knowing your safe a no rim will go flying any minute(and no vibrations)...
If you have RFTs "ANY" change to non-RFTs will still make an improvement even if a bigger rim...
I think 18 are best compramise between looks and comfort..
but those 19" 128 look very nice.
