My Ride: 2009 535i
Hey all,
I have seen pics of the Msport rims that come with the ZMP package on the new 535is. The 135 rims are only 18" and do not look bad, but you have to love the 19"172's.
Why didn't they just include the 19"172s on the new 535is? Probably so people would still buy 550 with sport package.
Or why didn't they make the 135s 19"?
Under the accessories at the BMWUSA site the 135s are also more expensive than the 172s. That also seems strange.

Because most people who buy 5 series are stuffy old men or old milfs and rare is the day that you find a serious BMW fan willing to blow thousands of dollars on making the car look and run like a freaking sextastic road pimp.

IMO 172's would win hands down if you started that poll..also..the 135's don't come staggered 
***I would try and opt out for some 124's, over the 135's
