Maybe I have been looking at wheels way to much and am burned out but I find the E60 body style very hard to find nice matching wheels for.

Any coupe sports car looks great with all the variations of wheels from deep lips to the concave look but on this car none most of those wheels don't appeal to me. I thought I narrowed my search down to OEM styel 128, 166, or 179 but now I am tired of looking at those wheels as well. My problem is summer is here and my impatience won't allow me to step back and take a fresh approach later on.

I know this is a very personal taste type of question but is there a wheel style I am missing that makes a tasteful statement? Keep in mind I prefer the flush face and concave center look the most.

P.S. My car is Alpine White.

 

What about style 172 wheels? or possibly the M3 M Competition wheel? check them out at this link:

Thanks for the feedback but I would get 166 wheels over 172.

I think wheels like the M3 M you linked to are too busy for this car style. The coupes and smaller cars can pull off the look but this bigger sedan looks out of place and that's my problem. Sometimes I look at something like a Miro 111 wheel and like it and other times I don't think I will be happy for the next 3 years of ownership.

 

what about 167?? any love for those i personally love it on the e60

 

For OEM I would do 166 over 167 but those are the only OEM's I would consider.

Persoanlly, if your not doing 166 then there are even better options going into 20inch with other brands

 

Agree with Racer there, if you're willing to move up to 20", lots more option out there especially for alpine white. IMO, the body style of the E60 is very easy on the eyes with most concave or lip style.

 

And of course your budget comes to factor in as well.

I don't know about hard to match wheels... I get plenty compliments on my BBS's

 

Hell, it took me about a year to decide on wheels.
