I have seen many new #166s over the past couple of years, but it never gets old....

Congratulations on the enjoyment of some really cool looking wheels.

congrats on the new shoes -- I'll be putting mine on again in a few weeks time (see pics of my old ride for reference)

On my last ride I used the M135s for winter, like you will, and every time they put them on it was as if someone had shrunk my summer rims! Joking apart, its great to have two of the nicest rims fitted to your ride -- excellent choice of rim style.

You joining us for the European meet? Try and get those rims there a little earlier and cruise on over...

Are these the exact same wheels as the M5? They look deeper on the M5 (in person.)

Thanks to all of you for your replies

@ xBMWx: I'll try to do my best to join the meet (' lot of changes occur in my job - foreign posting en so on...). Anyway, at least, I'll post some pics.

@GT Premi: Well, according the dealer and the BMW Ref N?, these are the 166M foreseen for the M5 (9,5x19 ET28 for the rear & 8,5x19 ET12 for the front).
