Finally decided on 20" Rohana Wheels RL-08 Black Machined w/Chrome Stainless Steel Lip for my 2007 550i. The question is tire sizes for them.
Front 20 x 8.5 18mm offset
Rear 20 x 10 25mm offset

Front tires 245/35/20
Rear tires 275/30/20

Does this look right for my car. Heres a picture of the rims on an M5

second choice is the Vossen VVS-CV1 Concave Wheel.
Does these feel for a better fit for my ride than the Rhohana Wheels

I prefer these.

...but i think you would need to see them on a e60 though. (and in the same colour as yours)

Do we have the same color ride? If so, good luck finding something. I went through several sets of wheels before I made up my mind. However, I knew I didn't want a web design from the start. I am more partial to a spoke design.

Here are two styles I have gone with: OEM Style 172 and my current 20" Iforged Sprints in my sig.

Same color ride as mine. I know it hard to find the right wheels for our color but I want my ride to have that sporty luxury look.

I liked the Vossen CV1s, then I liked the CV2...but I figure if I'm going to spend that much, I'll put a little more and get DPEs (forged wheels). PM Michael (member acuteperformance). He's a great vendor here.
