My Ride: E60 530d MSport Auto, 19" 172 Spiders on ContiSports 2's, Pro Nav, Adaptive Xenons, Bruce M's V6 Rear LCI Cables/Lights, Number plate LED
What do people think about the E60 19" 172 alloys vs the F10 19" 351 alloys?
I personally think the:
[1] 351 alloys are identical to the E92 19" alloys. Bit boring.
[2] 172 alloys are some of the best looking OEM alloys. They compliment the angles of the E60 so well.
Thoughts?

My Ride: E61 535d carbon black m-kit panoramaroof with beige nasca interior and wood trim. 172m rims. DimSport Race, SB, SAT
The 351's look a bit like the 167's. Both are nice for sure, as are the 184's and 135's (my current wheels). However the very best wheels for an e6x are, as you correctly point out, 172's.
I won a pair on ebay this weekend and was to drive to Germany this morning to pick them up. The seller had an accident last night and now wants to cancel the sale as he says they are not in good shape; he is fortunately ok. I got them at a really good price and I want to hang on to them and see how bad it is and whether they can be restored. I'm tempted to look for other wheels but nothing beats the 172's in my view.
