I don't like any of them. They are just not for E60s.


Me neither!

BMW drivers get a hard enough time as it is, don't throw fuel on the fire!

Welcome to the Forum telepinus!

On a what looks standard E60 all those rims are a bit too much bling-bling to me, too.

Here's some BMW OEM 19":ers that in my opinion are great.
They look good and are fore sure quality wheels.

M styling 166 and 172.

Don't ever put those bling2 rims on an E60, IMO it looks horrible. In a 7 series it may stands out though.

There are many other reputable aftermarket wheels like HRE, Iforged, DPE, BBS, Radenergie, Hamann, ACS... and many others.

Respect the car, don't go for the bling! Save that for the rice-rockets.

I think they will look great on your car. All you need now are some neon lights for around the bottom, a gold nugget licence plate frame, some furry dash board carpet, leopard seat covers and a few hookers.
