I just got the new E60 accessories brochure and saw a few new wheels that hadn't been mentioned yet on the new 5. When I get a minute, I'll scan it in. I have decided on an 18" Star Spoke 89 for my new 525 when it arrives. It looked great on the 760, and the catalog shows it on the new 5...looks sweet.

FYI, the ones also in there are the:

Trapezoidal Spoke 134 - std 525
Radial Spoke 50
Star Spoke 115
Star Spoke 123
Star Spoke 124
Radial Styling 132 - std 545i sport
Radial Styling 32

You can see them here all the BMW wheels

Great post and I like your choice a lot! I also really dig the 116 and 124.

How much $ are these?

list is 420 front, 425 back for just the wheel. I figure I can get 20% off from a dealer I know via the BMW CCA discount. I think I am getting the Yoko AVS ES100s from Tire Rack for them. I have a set on my Boxster and they are a good value. Total package should be about $2200 total.

Also, the early pics for the accessories don't quite match all of what really made it.

Funny, I also have a Boxster now (99 in Ocean Blue) and I am also moving to an E60.

Great minds think alike

I am keeping mine as a weekend driver. My wife and I will be taking turns between the new 5 and a new Cayenne Turbo bought last month!

Does anyone know if you can order oem 19' wheels for the 5 series. I particularly like the std items on the 6 series style no 121??

Didn't see any in the accessories brochure, but there is a 19" wheel shown on that page I showed a link to above, I believe it is the Star Spoke 128 wheel. IMO it is a little too big for the 5, and runs a MUCH higher risk of being damaged by a pot hole. Too much for the tradeoff. I think 18 is about as big as you should go, but again, just an opinion.
