the prices are ok maybe $100 to 200 more but it worth it
they give good service and also you get free nitrogen when you get wheels from them for the rest of you live, as long as you own the car

Hi, I am new to BMW family. Got my 523i EAG batch in Dec. Need to learn more from C-hing here.
Thinking of changing the 16" wheel to 18" or 19". Will that consumpt much more fuel and sacify the passenger comfort? Some shops convince me to go for lighting wheel which won't take more fuel than the factory ones. I am not sure about this?
Any good shop recommened for changing wheel and where can I find second hand wheel?
Thanks.

all 09 cars come with 16" with spare wheel
maybe its end of the line for the e60 and they have too many of the spar wheel instock so they sell with 16" which is not standard for a e60.
17 RFT is standard on e60
