those are asanti af123s and according to my distributor their biggest lip with the e60 offset is a 4" in the back and a 2.5 in the front. i did months of research to get the biggest available all around, and much of that depends on the wheels. car still looks gorgous, love that color.

WOW. JOHN, Nice ride dude. Looks awesome. Tell me about that tail. Is it the ACS replica from ebay? Looks great. Love the black wheels. Some people don't get it. I think it's tough looking. Nice job.

This is the picture i got yesterday...I want to change it for those wheels that have a huge rear lip. Any suggestions?

keep your car as it is; you have the perfect wheels. Think about buying the M-sport aerokit ..they fit the car and wheel very well !!

I would worry about the quality and style of the wheels, not so much the lip size

that all depends how you look at it... the lip MAKES the wheels. take a look at mines, i don't think it would look as good with a 1 inch lip all around...

I like this wheel!!...it would be great if i can put the bmw center cap to this wheels. That is possible?

I like those wheels too. They come in a staggered setup. I've seen them on EBAY and they're ebeing sold by DTM Autowerkes. I don't know about quality or weight, etc., but I think they look clean. And the rear wheel lip is larger than the front. The lip is not as big as JOHN or E60_got_lip (loving those two cars by the way!!!), but I think it would come off nice...and the price is right.
