Hi guys,
I'm planning to buy full set of rims of either OEM 166 or 167.
But I won't lower my car. because it's for daily use.
Anybody has a picture of e60 using these rims without lowering the car?
Thanks guys.
Yoko.

Yes, I dont feel like lowering either.. unless u sit down and see, it hard to see big gap.

did you do an alignment? do you have active steering? how much did it cost you?

my530i Jul 15, 2007 11:43 AM

No. I did not do alignment. Why do we need it if we just change wheels and tires? I don't have active steering.

an alignment is only needed if you lower your car. if you just exchange wheels, you will be fine without an alignment.
