hi guys,

Im thinking to look for BMW rims on the BMWwheels.com. Im interested on these 2 models .

Which one do you think fit the best for black 5 series?

I also confuse about the fitment of these wheels. BMWwheels.com claims that all their wheels are OEM not replica. Far as i know, these 2 models are supposed to be on the 7 series. Do we have the same offset and everything with the 7 ?
I dont want to use any spacer..to risky for high speed.

If not these wheels, I might think to get 530 sport wheels..but its only 18"

thx guys.

The right wheels are better than the left.

This will probably log me in as a guest (maylander739)

I think it depends what look your going for, the right wheels look sportier, but the left ones give the executive look.
