these replicas are 19", kinda cool if you ask me.

why not just 19" 166's?

not sure if you are thinking of purchasing those for yourself, but be careful with reps...vibration and cracking/bending are known to occur easily...

If they'll also fit an e39, that means 74.1mm hubs, which means hub rings for your 72.56 e60. Abort!
