You have lots of options!

Where did you pickup these wheels for $499?

+1 for 19" wheels. They just look sooooooooo much better. Ride quality is almost identical.

Allright allright I will go for 19"!

The differenece in wheel's diamater of 245/40R18 and 245/35R19 and 265/30R19 is just 0.3 inches! So its should allright.


I have found these wheels - MRR GT1 Full Chrome, I think they look great!
They do have specs to fit E60. See the picture of them in Black on a 3 series.

Anyone knows the weight? And where to get them?

we can get those wheels and others. in my personal opinion though, for wheels with a lip, look-wise it would be best to get them in 20" because the lip of the wheel makes the face look smaller.

From Wheels & Caps - $499 including shipping. I bought the OEM roundels (70mm) from eBay for $14.99

Wheels ==> http://www.wheelsandcaps.com/special...508U#ALY59508U

Roundels ==> http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Qty-4...Q5fAccessories

I think Lakeshore Wheel and Tire also sells them. I have nothing to do with either- but have done business with both and been happy.

Awesome deal I think. They look better in person than teh pictures- polished lip is gorgeous.
