I have to agree that those rims have more of an old school look. Concave is where its at.

Dont get me wrong though, they will go on but you may need spacers to push them out


BUT Sweet Wheels

He is running the all wheel drive version which has different offsets to the regular e60.....

I think my wheels are the kings of concave... Maybe that´s why these magics are called Concave :-)
