The fuel consumption difference is mainly caused by your right leg.
The increased grip will makes you feel the car become slower therefore you would eventually step the gas pedal harder. Some say you will need a sprint booster for a more sensitive gas pdeal.
The original equipped 18" is running on 245/40R18 run flat tyres.
You should check which wheel setup you would like to go with OE parts website like http://bmwfans.info , enter your VIN and search for the right wheel.
I am running on 19" (see my signature) and the mixed fuel consumption is below 13L/100km.

Thanks a lot to everyone here. I have asked similar question in teh other forum but couldn't get a good reply, weither because they are not from HK, or they do not have E60.

mark mate, forgot to tell you, if you still have the hologram stickers on the rims, you are entitled
to nitrogen fill up at that Megabox wheel place
new boy- Captain "16inch pussy wheels" Pingy will direct you
that place is a good place to buy wheels, cheaper than the HK side.
(sorry Capt 16, you did say 'bring it on'
)
