I like the looks too but cost too much and not much use why not just get a die-cast e60 and mod it to 22" wheels.
In HK I have seen a bb and a cube with 20" wheels mad


Ah so you like the looks of it but they cost too much. Just say that Get some replica 22inch schnitzers then

100% right I will only get replica of any wheels not just ac in HK unless I go back to UK then I get the real thing because I know I will always drive over 100mph in UK and itis not safe with replica going at that speed, but in HK it is very rair that I drive over 70mph.

22s do look appealing but its not the best idea for sure.

xexyus, come on bro, everyone to his own, lets leave the passive agressive stuff out of here, cuz everyone is a family here...

THE 6 series is based off of the 5 series e60 chasis it can be done with no modifications. Ive seen it personally I wouldnt do it but it can be done no problem with the right offset and wheel width

Hey guys...I have 21" Lowenharts on mine and i must say that i love it. I know that the ride quality is slightly compromised with the lower profile tires but it didnt end up being as bad as i thought. It still rides very nice and corners great. There is no rubbing and i didnt have to use springs to lower the car to fit the gap. I think its just a personal preference as to the size of the wheels. I have had SUV's and am use to large rims and love em. I enjoy seeing everyones unique style that they bring to thier cars.
