Well finally the damned things arrived....... !!!!!

19inch Dotz Mugello's Staggered

Fronts: 8.5x19 ET15 245 Falken 452's
Rears: 9.5x19 ET20 275 Falken 452's

Fronts sit perfect, however I think maybe a 5mm Spacer on the rears would look better ?

Starting to wonder if I should drop the car a little now, its a tough decision tho because I like the handling and ride of the M-Sport suspension, KW V3's on my E46 were fine, bouncing around in a stiff 3 series doesn't look or feel so wrong, not sure its the right thing to do with my 5 series tho !!

Still waiting for some Carbon Fibre "BMW" centre caps for the wheels to arrive, fitting Carbon Fibre badges on the front and rear as well.

 

Looks great Mark, could do with dropping a tad

Let me know how you get on with the 452's, I'm thinking of changing my tyres to them (Same setup as yours 245/275) in the not too distant future.

 

Will do mate

 

Can I be honest?

Somehow although the rims look great, I am not feeling much for it on the E60. Seems small. Perhaps a 20" would have been better. i have a feeling that the rim design you have compared to the 172 (where spokes go the very end) aggravates the small'ish look.

Anyway, overall it still looks good.

cheers

 

Looks great..but dropping it slightly will make it look superb..

 

Not Skoda Superb I hope.......

 

looks clean!! Although cleaning those rims will be a pain!

 

Some shots which do more justice I think........

I definately think 5mm spacers are the way to go on the rear, should I need that with the offsets I have (ET20), maybe even 10mm's ??? anyone with experience on this ?

The drop is definately on the cards now

20's were never an realistic option for me im afraid, rubber is crazy prices.

 

What size tires are you running?

 

looks nice drop it a tad bro also you shoulda just flipped some extra $ for the 20;s it would of been worth it
