Anyone have this combo with 166 M rims or other rims? I'm also looking for the dark blue exterior with Aero M kit and upgraded rims. All i've seen on the board is light colored cars with Aero and upgraded rims.

Show me some pics!

I just put the 166 rims on my silver 550. I was a little apprehensive until I saw it in person. This is a huge improvement, and I'm sure it will look fantastic with Monaco blue. It looks great on black, so ergo it will look great on Monaco blue. What surprised me is how much the ride and steering improved when I put on the 19" rims with Michelin PS2 tires. It is another car!

What convinced me on the wheels is going to the dealership and seeing a black M5 with them. You might also try visitn M5 board.com and look at the gallery.

Did you just trade in your old rims and tires or just buy all new and swap out? I am hoping I can swap my new 550i sport package tires and pay the difference with dealer.
