Does anybody here at the e60 forum know where I can find a picture of Lomag's BMW with his new BMW OEM 19 inch 166 M's on it? (I am trying to prove my point with my local BMW dealer that's says no way the 166 M's will fit properly on a non M5, and I must buy the 135s or I could have problems with the 166 M's)
Thanks in advance.

Ricracing THANKS!
I don't see how he can get offended with such a cool looking ride as Mark has! (I hope mine looks half that good when I get my 19 inch BMW OEM 166M's installed in a couple of weeks!)

PS,
I usually don't do this, but I was asked to do this, and I am showing the management at Hank Aaron BMW in Union City Georgia a lot of pictures from the forum, (Marks is just one of the many I am showing), where members are buying and using the new 166 M's on their non M5 and having NO problems in doing so, like I want to do)

Do a member search on Lomag and then get in to profiles and members topics and ther you should find his topic about style 166m

Seems like your dealer is clueless and giving you a really hard time on these 166's. Why not purchase them from Crevier or Newport which sell them at a great price?

Man... thats crazy. My dealers advertising and is SELLING #166s with tires mounted on the rims to people with regular E60s
245/35 F, 275/30 R will fit on the E60 without any problems. Even 245/40/19 Front and 285/35/19 rears WILL fit on the regular E60 but the front will get a slight, VERY VERY slight rub under full comression. But it does work fine.
Here are more pics.
