My Ride: 2006 530I sport. Sapphire black
current mods; limo tint, smoked sidesignals, black/white emblems, RPI scoop, BMI filter, black kidney grill and M5 front bumper installed soon
im currently looking at the Mirro 346V2 wheel in 19" black 8.5 front, 9.5 rear...(i was thinking 20" and doing a deep lip, but i dont want to take the chance for any rubbing), first question... what do you think of this wheel, and what is the best tire to run front and back. another wheel i am looking at is the Vossen VVS-075 matte black in 19" any thoughts between the 2 wheels... 1 has a lip and 1 does not so... thanks

Miro makes an excellent wheel, they do a lot of the replicas on this board and are JWL and VIA certified so they are not soft wheels. We typically package these with a 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 front and rear tire for the E60.

Definetly go with 245/35 and 275/30. I accidently put 265/30s on the rear and had about a half inch less in total diamater. Had to change it out to the 275s. I know some online places match 235 front and 265 rear but leaves way too much gap between tire and fender in the e60.

WITH THAT TIRE SIZE I SHOULOD NOT HAVE A RUBBING PROBLEM? and how about the VOSSEN wheels....just for a comparison and to help way my choice.... again, that one has a lip where the Miro does not.... so that is the main decision breaker i believe

No rub.
Make sure you get M6 off-set wheels.
