Yesterday I called my dealer to order the 166 style rims .. Only the 20% of discount but I have to talk with the boss (25% could be better than 20 
)
Today I went to the tyre vendor and we chose Michelin Pilot Sport 2 (I don't love French people but PS2 are good tyres), that will arrive on friday .
My damn dealer, instead, IMHO haven't asked the urgent shipment ... Thus I think rims will arrive only on monday .
In any case the next week my 5er will finally have the new 19" rims! (and I will be able to do some pics)
Mission accomplished!

You will love them....did you go 275/30/19 or 285? Some say the 275's look a bit small on the rim...I have them and think it looks great.

I can mount only 245-275 for now : for 255-285 I must be authorized by BMW Italy .
When I will have destroyed the rear 275 (20-25k km, I think - next year) I will ask to BMW for 285 on rear wheels and for the front tyres after 40-50k km .
Anyway, I am very excited at the idea to have the 19"!!
Yes 530i Msport, pics pics next week!
Next mod : M5 rear bumper or 530i diff (3.23 final ratio) to have shorter gears!
