BBS LM replicas with Falken Azenis 615's

225/40/18 with 12mm spacer in front
255/40/18 in the rear

They really compliment the springs and shocks

If you like them, that's all that really matters at the end of the day.

Everyone on the forum has different taste.

I'm a fan of 20+. But whatever floats your boat. They don't look bad...They just appear a bit smaller. Good luck with them.

Indeed, although i think that is the best rim for a Porsche (in bigger sizes). The 5 series is kind if a big 4 door saloon and that style doesn't suit it the best (imho). The rim design is awesome but it just makes the rims smaller by 1-2" in any format. That's why it suits best 2 door coupes like the M3 or a Carrera.

PS: Replicas are a nono.
