Hi all
I am new on this forum, have been reading your posts last night and find quite alot of interesting things about the E60.
Let me introduce myself, I live on the Kowloon side and my family have a E60 523i A08 silver grey, black d leather, black interior, maple wood trim.? Everything stock on the car (pity).?
The only thing that I like to get done on my car and "the most" important thing is that 16" rim.? Want to change to a OEM 17 or 18", but as the car is only 1 month old going back to BMW HK will cost me a fortune.? So if anyone here wants to upgrade their wheels and wants to sell me their stock 17 or 18" wheel then I think we need a little man to man talk.
Seen some photos on this forum and gotta say nice rides especially bunbun and gf366 with the M-kit.

Another Silver Gray 523i, so we got 3 now.I had sold my old wheels to a tyre shop in Mong Kok, and they got some nice second hand E60 wheels for sale, shouldn't be too expensive, guess it should be under $10000 for the whole set. If you want the address/phone number of that shop, PM me and I will send it to you.

Hello AC_S5
Welcome. Wow, we're getting more local members everyday Our next meet should be exciting.
You can also talk to your service rep regarding 17" OEM wheels. They usually hv "contacts" with third party tire/wheel shops and know "channels" to get you OEM wheels at cheaper prices than BMWHK. Altho, some of these wheels maybe slightly used. But hey, look at mine, you won't know the difference (until the mrs. bunbun curbed it....
).
Look forward to seeing pics of your ride.
