Hi,

I was surfing around a bit and found this E60 with 7 series rims under it. They are 19 inch in size.

For everyone wondering how it would look like, this is how!

Not bad!

It is better than I've imagined. However, comparatively, I still like style 124 better, if they were the same size.

The 7-series sport-package rim (I don't exactly know its number and I am too laze to look it up right now) makes the 5 look more luxurious.

I always liked the look of those wheels. I wonder if they bold directly on or any spacers, etc. were required?

As far as I have read they bolt on 1 on 1.. The only thing they changed was the tiresize so the speedometer isn't affected.

The 7 Series wheels look very good on the 5. I think the wheels enhance the beauty of the silver color.

Negative...style 95.
Originals for the 7 series.

Actually I found these rims in 17" with Continental winter tyres and wondered how the car would look like...know I do
These are still my number 1 option for winter tyres/rims when I eventually buy
in November.

Nice one Dennis !!!

Don't those 7er wheels have an offset of ET 24? 5er wheels have an offset of ET 20 does this pose a problem?
