Got to be M5's buddy . WHich 1, M5 wheels or M6 wheels on E60-copy-m5-wheels-057.jpg

As luck would have it I have a brand new set of 19 inch rep M5's with brand new tyre on all boxed up sitting in my garage . Bought them as an alternative to my 172 Spiders & the next day found a set of origonal M5's with new tyres so these were purchased and now live on my ride .
