I recently replaced my original 04 545i Style 124 wheels with these after-market Staggered M Parallel wheels. I like the look and wondered what others thought?

I actually like it the more I look at it. Unique looking E60. I think they would look even better 1 size larger. They look like 18's? Or maybe it just needs a drop now? Either way, I like it.

Loved these rims on the e34 when I was into that scene. They look pretty good, but not quite modern enough for the e60. Not bad at all though IMO

When I first got my E60, I loved those rims on the E39. I was looking for some for my car, but couldn't find them at the time. I agree that if they were 19", or 20's, they would look a lot better. They just seem to look small on the E60.
Are they 18"s?
