yeah that right soon you be on 19"
I know William will change some time
Is that means as"1寬3大" (bigger rim bigger Bill?) My car come with 16", so may go for 18" rim as first stage upgrade & look for 19" rim after saving enough money!

I totally agree with pinguhk that the one who is using 18" should go for 19" rim. Much much better performance afterall; value for money ma! Go for it! Go for it!...... & don't worry about your old set of 18" rim, just give me a good price & I will take good care on these rims for you!!!

19" will look great on E60, 18" is abit too small in my opinion especially for the big saloon like us, but it offers greater steering response/agility.

Go for the 19" and you will never look back

to me 19" rim is for the look, 18" gives better performance cos it's lighter and good tires are not very expensive for 18". Tires that give similar performance in 19" costs a lot more.

I 100% agree
if you like racing then go for 18 or even 17 but for me it got to be the balance and looks of the hole car

18" or 19" also not bad and depend on the owner preferable which way to go. But 16" is really small. You have almost 20 items need to mod. Please start you engine quickly
