My Ride: E60 530DA
E39 523
[sub][sub]Hello everyone, greetings from Costa Rica!
I have lots of time dreaming and could not decide yet what new rims to put in my silver 530DA 2006, I have two final options: style 166 and style 128, 19's.
My question with the style 166 is as follows: given the size of tire that uses this rim: 255/40R-19 (front)
285/35R-19 (rear) , Do you thing that there is possibility that these rims and tires fail to fit into the 530DA ?
This instead the style 128 tire size: 245/35R-19 (front)
275/30R-19 (rear)
I am concerned if that tires could make some contact with the strut tube...but I really prefer that style 166, because I have more inches between the rim and the street, here we have horribles streets with a lot of huge gaps...i mean craters![/sub][/sub]
So this is the option that I found in Goggle:

I have a pair of 128's deep dish offset for E60 in my warehouse. I never mounted them yet actually. They're at the maximum offset you can get. What are the offsets for your 128's?
I have 245/35/19 and 275/30/19. Brand is Achilles ATR Sport. 400AA treadwear...very nice tires. Had same tires on my E39 before....low noise, great traction and good treads. Probably paid $500 for the set.

Hi Achtung!
It must be ET 20 front and 32 rear ET, because I'm ordered directly with the part number as appears under the VIN # of my car, and this wheels appears like an optional wheels to my car, this at REAL OEM and Penske Parts too...everything under my VIN number.
So, I bought the OEM rims at PENSKE PARTS with the part # under that VIN.
I think for sure the tires must to fit...I hope that!!
I paid $960 for the tires at Tire Rack
..after reading around 200 reviews, I chose Bridgestone Potenza RE 960AS Pole Position
It's look as a great tire, 400 AA A and very good reviews.
I was looking first for some Continental Extreme Contact but this Conti's are in back order...so, let's see what happen with my choice of the Potenza's
Thanks a lot for your offer!

I had syle 128 on my E60 with 245/35/19/F and 275/30/19/ R.
Definitely head turners, perfect stability on a highway at 200km/h+, but I don't like the harsh ride in the city.
Also see here.

Hey GalloPinto,
Looks like your question has been answered so I thought I would just add a welcome. Looks like Chepe in the background, correct? I used to live in Costa Rica and go back a lot. I'll look for your e60 next time. Pura Vida!
