Ok after going through 135M to Breyton Spirits 18" to 166M I finally decided to get the 172M wheels. I wanted to know ppl who installed them in their 530i's , was the fitment easy or any mods were needed? Also do i need to order separate sets of nuts and bolts or the stock will work ?

Finally what NON run flats tyres should i use ?

thanks for all your inputs guys....

hey snkpkp,

172s fit without any problems - they are afterall one of the few stock rims for the e60. tire size should be 245/35 front, 275/30.

cheers rumma
