Well looks like I found some pics of an E60 (M5 actually) with 19" Alufelgen SF-71's in Hyper Black. They look really nice but was hoping for a little more concavity. Actually there is a guy selling these wheels on the M5board at the moment in Colorado...

So the question is - will these be a lot more concave in 20's?

you need a 10" width to get some concavity on those wheels. I had the 9.5" VB3 and went to the 10" and it was a lot more concave.

E39 = Deep Lips
E60 = Concavity

Thats just my opinion though. Just not a huge fan of big lips, at least on the E60

Those wheels on the M5 look TINY, geez, not good at all. They look like someone took the wheels off a Honda Fit and slapped on an M5 :thumbsdown:
