Welcome to the boards. I`d definitely consider 19". Have you taken a look at our new CS7 (CSL Reps) wheels? Here is a picture below. Might be worth to consider if you are looking at CSL reps.

Hi and welcome,
I consider myself a bit of an expert when it comes to wheels having done well over 200,000 miles with e60s.
Ok first off, what looks best? That's a no brainer 19s. What's the roads like where u live? If they are wonderful and you only do 20,000 a year go for the 19s.
If however you drive on roads that have potholes then you will not keep your car going on wheels.
My roads in Scotland are crap. So I ran 18s and would have ran 16s if my 535d took them!
My new car is fitted with 19s and they have been repaired in almost 30 places!
Hope that helps.
Cheers

If you get 19's make sure you go with a quality wheel. You'll feel the difference in your pocketbook now, or later when you have to repair a cheap replica wheel that cracks on you when you sneeze wrong. Just remember you get what you pay for.
