nice wheels, i dont think ive seen those before on an e60, so definitely unique. ive seen them online though, and my gf was trying to get me to get those wheels after i already had my 128s on, just because "they're prettier and look like a flower". looks good though man
i kinda thought they look like a flower too but the more i look at it, it looks like a 5 spoke on some serious steroids. nice fat lip too.

why the MT1's?
I wanted to stay with a larger spoke aesthetically and easier to clean all of that BMW brake dust. It also struck me that they were very different from any that I had seen on an E60.

And lastly, I just really liked the wheel when I saw them up against the car before I actually bought them. I really like the lip and the way they still resemble the standard 5 spoke that came with the car.

BTW, your RT5's look great on your car. Nice choice.

As a Barry Bonds fan, I find the steroid usage analogy perfect to describe the look.
