The Miro 166's have a lip around the circumference, which causes brake dust build up and is a pain to get rid of. It's also not flush and doesn't look as good. Looks like a cheap mold was used. It's not as concave as the real 166's and the color is different. Personally, I hate the real 166's, so either way, I'm not a fan. Go with the 935's. Next! Who's next?!?!?!

Thanks for all the responses! I used to have an E46 330ci with 18" staggered CSL's on it and I thought it looked pretty damn good with those...These on the E60 make that car look like a kid car :-P I'll bet the M5tech kit on with these wheels would look hot...

OK now a buddy of mine at work has got me rethinking the wheel size. First of all, my wife will probably be driving this as much as I will, since it will be a daily driver. Are the 935's made in a 19" size with correct offsets for a 545i?
