Can anyone tell me what kind of wheels these are and what size. I think they look awesome on the 5 series.

The look like MB BRABUS wheels that my brother's brother-in-law have on his car. But I think there's another brand that makes similar wheels too. They also have it in black, looks really cool!!

Thats like the nicest 5 series I have seen.

Are the wheels staggered? Did you have to lower the car, springs?

thanks

Thanks for the compliment man! I know that my car isn't everyones' cup of tea but I like the look of my car. The rims are staggered 8.5 in front and 9.5 in the rear. The weird thing is that everyone thinks that my car is lowered but its not. I won't be able to lower the car until I get new tires, otherwise I'm going to have a major rubbing issue. It rubs a little but over big dips (even though I had the fenders rolled). I have the sport package so the suspension is a tad bit lower than the e60s without it. I'm currently running 35 up on the front wheels but I think i need to get 30's to be able to lower it. Anyways, I'm glad you like it, so do I!
