I believe it was a 5/8" spark plug socket that I used on my 545i.
Make sure it's a socket meant for removing spark plugs--they have a rubber grommet in them that will hold on to the plug and let you pull the plug out with the socket
Also: tip that helped me--wrap tape around the joints for your extensions/sockets/whatever you have to use to get to the sparkplugs to hold everything together. It makes it easier pulling the sockets out at some weird angles on 545i. 528i may be easier.
