166. yup they will be a pain to clean, but I think the 166 is a little more classic. 167 a little more contemporary. That is just my two cents. Either way a either the cream of the crop.

166's!

No question about it!
They simply look the best and they are BMW!

245/35 front and 275/30 rear tyres.

I hope you do have the M-sport package.

Just saw an m6 with the 167's on - which is where they belong IMO.

What about 285/30 rear? I heard that this combination is the best at looks, since the extra width and lil more extra tire wall fills up the arches perfectly on the back.

Thanks for your advice, it has been a very difficult choice, but now I have made my decision and I have just ordered style 167.

Pics will be posted soon.
