I have a 2009 535xi on order for ED. I want to keep the standard 17" wheels for my winter set. I'm leaning towards the m double spoke 135 wheels, but I'd like to see some pictures on actual 5 series cars, preferably xdrive models.

The local dealers don't have any cars with these wheels. I've only seen one picture of a 5 series from 2005 which is hopefully attached. I've seen a number of pictures of the 135 style wheels on 3 series, but they look very different. I've also seen the drawings on realoem.com, but it is hard to tell if they match the picture of the wheels on the attached 5 series picture or are they more like the 3 series.

Does anyone have pictures of these wheels on a 5 series?

Thanks

The only pictures I have are my old 545 with the 135's. The Xi version, having seen it in person, looks like the version on the 3 series you posted. The Xi version is much "flatter" than the non-Xi version. The standard version is more concave as you show. I prefer the non-Xi version with the more concave shape, but that is my personal preference...

Yeah, I agree. I like the more concave shape. That is the reason for my post. I don't want to order these wheels and end up with the flat version.

Thanks
