hi guys
could anyone share some of his experience on changing the rims from the original ones 04 525i to the M5 ones?
I know there are some Taiwanese wheels which look exactly the same, are they good? are they all 18'?
besides, which tyres suit best? as i am currently using European tyres which are rediculously long lasting
I am thinking of Taiwanese M5 rims + japanese GR90 , ok ma?

for tyres go for BG they are very good but only last about 3 years max
