Hi guys, I just got myself a 2006 530i 2 weeks ago and started modifying 30 minutes after I picked it up:-)
I took it to the bodyshop to have the mtec kit, carbon fiber badges and a black grill fitted. (The car is Space grey).
I will get some pics to post soon.
What I'd like to know is does anyone know the part numbers for 19" OEM M6 alloys. I heard there are different part numbers for the M6 offsets other than the M5 offsets?
Will they rub if lowered?
Any advice would greatly be appreciated.
Cheers
Paul

ok, thanks. So what tires, sizes would be best to avoid rubbing? I'm planning on getting H&R springs.
See my sig below for tire sizes for OEM M6 rims.

Great advice, thanks guys!
I think the originals look so nice! I know a few people have them on here.
I'm not sure with the shipping if they would work out much cheaper for me seeing as I live in Holland.
Might email to ask anyway.
cheers

You should just buy your wheels from member: Alpine_White_Girl
She has Miro 20" M6 wheels and they look perfect.
Here is her FOR SALE thread if youre interested.

Thanks for all the info guys. Just about to go for the OEM 167's but I see there made for M5 and M6 offsets.
I'm going to be getting H&R sport springs with Koni yellow shocks later this year so can I get the M6 offsets still as they fill the arches a bit more?
Anyone have this set up or similar?
