Hi all, Can any one tell me if I can fit 2007 E60 OEM M5 alloys on my 2005 E60 535d? I have been told yes by the guy that is selling them, but been told NO by my local BMW dealership. HELPPPP!

Yes, they can fit easy.
Dealerships are full of idiots, remember that. They also charge an arm and a leg so don't go there for anything but serious engine or transmission repair and even then, only when totally necessary.

As long as you car is not an XI model, the M5 rims should fit. If they come with M5 spec tires, be sure to replace the tires as the M5 use slightly bigger tires and might cause rubbing for the non M5 E60.

Just put them on my 2004 530 and its fits like a charm, just have to replace tires to smaller setup. Look at my sig, I have my tire setup there.
