Got the new shoes put on today! OEM 167's wrapped up in Nitto Invo's.
Much to my serprise I actually had some pretty serious wear on the passenger side rear tire on the inside.
Taking her tomorrow for a 4 wheel alignment, so hopefully that issue will be corrected.
Look forward to the comments!

Those M6 wheels look so fantastic on the E60. Great choice.
Minor rant, not directed at this OP in particular, but wouldn't the analogy be "new feet, wrapped in new shoes" ... where wheels = feet and tires = shoes?

Thanks to all for the comments. Yes the M5 Style bumper fits nicely. Recommend hitting up Nerwyll for it.
I love the tread pattern on the Nitto's...that was a big reason why I got them.
As for the feet/shoes analogy..."feet" just doesn't have the same ring to it.
