hi guys,
below is a link of wheels off ebay i am thinking of buying
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ORIGINAL-2007-BMW-M5-18-WHEELS-AND-TYRES_W0QQitemZ200352569953QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAU_Car_Parts_Accessories?hash=item2ea5f19a61&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50
to me, these look like the 166 style, however 166 is 19"?
and i thought m5 wheels are staggered and they have an offset of 8.5 atleast (for the front)
but i could be wrong about all these, can you guys confirm? thanks soo muchh

Those are definitely not 166. But I just can't recall the actual style #. Other knowledgeable members please chime in.
these are 135ers, 18" rims - all over Europe you get it with the OEM M- Tec parts (if you don't choose 19").

How many E60 forum members does it take to answer a question with the same answer? It would seem 6!
