I have not seen any pics of a E60 with Style 247* 18" wheels on it,
even if the MY '08-'09 brochures car use them?

*forged 18" wheels size 8" F and 9" R

Hi,

Indeed strange that not a lot of members of this board have these wheels, I also like to see them on real live cars.
Any one have pictures of their car with these wheels?
You might start to think these wheels are not very nice in real life, also my dealer didn't sell them a lot.

Well, if you want to see these wheels in real life, just go look at a non-sport 3-series. That's the only thing I ever see them on, and that's probably why nobody wants them on their E60.

Here you will find some pictures of my E60 530dA with Stye 247 wheels posted in the German BMW Forum?

Enjoy.
PS: These pictures were taken after I installed the M-tech package!
For me these are currently the nicest grey / anthrazit wheels BMW provides; to be honest - they are the only grey ones BMW sells :-)

Nope, those were style 116, had them on my old 545. The basic design is similar though...
