IMO, the 20s are perfect for the E60!

Hi

What did you have in mind? I carry all popular brands like DPE, Klassen, HRE, iForged, etc. I can give the best deals on DPE and Klassen.

Congrats on the beast! AW is a great color.

I've seen a few M5s with 21s and they were all lowered as well. They all look great but the bigger wheels will definitely affect performance.

There are some great vendors on this board with specials on wheels like VIP Modular, Klassens, HREs, DPEs....etc..
yea i was told , the bigger the wheel i get will affect the performance .. thats one of the reason y i'm keeping my stocks ... 21's is for show stopn .. so how do you like the 360 forged wheels ??

I personally think you should go with 20s. I think that size perfectly complements the size of the M5 but won't decrease performance as much as 21s. I think only the hard core performance junkies will stick with 19s and I'm actually considering doing that too.

I like my 360s as they're relatively light compared to other similar 3 piece forged wheels like Klassens, HREs, DPEs or iForged. Unfortunately, there has been a lot of drama with that company so I wouldn't suggest going with them even though I would personally love to have one of their new Concave series wheels.

I believe Klassen can do custom set ups but I don't remember ever reading of anyone putting 11.5" wheels on the M5.

BTW, here are some pics of member Street King's M5 from M5Board with 21" HREs. The black M5 in the second pic is his wife's care also with HREs but I think they're 20s. I forgot if he has the RDSport springs like mine or KW V3s.
