I have always preferred the M6 ones, but only in 20 inch
But there are too many cars with M6 alloys in my town, I see them on 3 series, 1 series, Z4s so now I am looking for something that nobody has on their car, at least in my country

like gene said if you dont want to change the rotors/brakes go with the m5.
if your going to get rotors get the m6's because with new rotors/painted calipers it will look BAD ASS!

Im going with the miro m6's. Will be getting new rotors for sure, now deciding if i want the larger 550 brake setup with painted calipers, and metal brake lines.

M6 wheels are super hot. Get the M6 rotors and brakes and complete the look. Pretty bad ass if you ask me.

Sorry about all the rims topics but i have found the cheap replicas of m5 and m6 rims about the same price. We have a silver gray 545i

My first choice would be the m6 but i like the m5 rims too. Very hard to decide.

Haha,
