Does anybody esle feel this way about the 124?? anytime I see them from far away I like much better than when I see them close! hence why I like the 123s much better than the 124s.? In reality when I one day order my car, I'll have to get it with 172s

You know, I looked at the 123's again today and they really are fine. I may opt for another option on the car rather than replacing the wheels right away. I can always do that later.
Do you know of a good source to find BMW wheels?? I went to bmwwheels.com but can't find some of the wheels you all have referred to (like the 135 or 172).
Thanks again.

My Ride: 2008 M5 -- Exterior: Silverstone, Interior: Black. Fully Loaded. That just about sums it up! :-)
To each his own. It's called "individuality". 
Anyway, just got my 530i and had the Style 123's replaced with 124's. As someone noted earlier, check the classifieds. I bought the Style 124's through Merzbow, and sold my Style 123's to RoundelE60 (2nd set to cover winter tires). Man, what a great forum this is!
Anyway, Style 124's have the same exact offset as the Style 123's so there was no problem which changing alloys.
If you're still interested in buying a set of Style 124's, check out the classifieds or Personal Message EuroCarFan or ro11dice -- They both got new alloys and are selling their Style 124's.
Cheers,

Any BMW dealer's part department can get any wheel (including Style 135 and Style 172).
To get the part numbers for any wheel, just see http://zoouz.free.fr/e60_wh.htm. You can then get a price for them for your dealer. (That site had to take down all of their pictures at BMW's request, but you can at least see all the E60 styles and part numbers. E60 M5 wheels are at http://zoouz.free.fr/m5_wh.htm).
