Not my cup of tea buddy. Reckon they'd look a lot better if they had some concavity to them like the genuine ones... They don't look bad at all, don't get me wrong! But need some concavity!

I think you'd be better with a set of M5 or M-sport style rims if you're after a multispoke OEM look. The M3 rims look good, but a little bit out of place on an e60

My BBS LM's are an E46 M3 fitment and I use spacers and longer bolts to use them on my 545i. Works fine. I think those wheels look great on a 5er but you need bigger E60 tires. The M3 tires are too small.
