Has anyone got an e60 with a set of BMW OEM 135's on it, and a picture of your Bimmer with the 135's so I can see what they like on your e60 BMW, and how do you like them (18inch) compared to the 166 M5 rims? (19 inch)
Thanks in advance.

PS,
This is still new to me, but I am told to stick with the 18's becasue of the smooth ride of the 18's has over the 19s is this true, or someone BSing me? (I do like the looks of the 19's!)

Well there are kinda 2 sorts of 135s.
If you got the normal E60 (non xdrive) you get like concave rims.
If you got the x-drive E60 you get more flattened out 135's.
So here are both:
Tommy's car with regular 135's:
My (dads) car with x- 135's:
And my opinion on the smoothness of the driving. It is definitely true that car runs smooth.
But i don't have more details on the 19's... sorry for that. The only thing i know is that they definitely look HOT

. It seems like you always attached the picture within your post.If you want it you can just put it in your signature (a lot easier and less work
.So here is what you do (i already resized your pic and uploaded it on imageshack):
you go to my controls and in your signature you type in above your car, color, options (you already typed in) this link:
http://img100.imageshack.us/img100/1348/presley9oe.jpg
and then you select this link and then you press the icon with that tree (next to "bold, color of your letters,...)
i can't show you the direct thing you have to type in otherwise this post thinks i already want to post it
and this is what you get:
Greetz and let me know if it worked

That would be a neat difference to recognize a non badge Xdrive with sports package.
Could you take some detail pics of the rims?

The x 135's have an X in the middle of the rim while the 'normal' 135 have nothing...
The X 135's are more flattened out than the 'normal' 135 which have the concaving stuff like the 166s.
Normal 135:
X-135:
And i'm still not proud of it
. I more like the concave one's
