My Ride: 2006 BMW e60 gray
I have a gray BMW e60 and looking for some rims, just want opinions on some types of rims. I really like the black m5 rims. Opinions please?

I suggest OE BMW wheels that were originally available for the E60. IMHO, all aftermarket wheels look terrible on any BMW. Hey, you asked for oppinions.

Don't get OEM wheels. Don't get me wrong a couple are good looking but majority don't. If these are for summer go with 19's. For all season I'd get 18's . The price of oem heavy wheels you can buy a frogged 2 piece (light weight) wheels. On top of the light weight benefit you can go wider than oem. 9 front 10.5 rear compared to oem 8.5 front 9.5 staggered set ups. This all means you'll be able to run wider tires for comfort and looks. Take a look at the beyern Bavaria a brand new forged 2 piece wheels. I just bought a set. Come in silver and black. Also a good wheel for the price are VMR's.
