Changed the wheels recently to style 313 wheels which are in BMW Performance catalog as wheels for 3-series. Was not sure initially about fitment but it worked.
Need a BBK now...lol. I used higher profile tires than usual 245/40/19 front and 275/35/19 in rear as I have real bad roads in my area and did not want bent wheels.
No rubbing issues.

looks good, should fit fine as 3 series off sets are higher and suit XI e60 models pretty well...you need to lower your e60 as well IMO...

Those wheels look awesome. I love the design. As an added bonus they must be easy to clean. Congrats! Now if they only came in 18 in. and did not cost a fortune...

Thanks. They are much easier to clean than the stock M-sport pack wheels.

Looks great, reminds me of my m parallel rims on my E39. Need to paint your caliper so it looks cleaner.
