My Ride: 535d Sport, carbon black, media pack, visibility pack, grey leather, heated seats, sun protection glass, voice control, Eibach ProKit, 19" 166 style wheels, e-maps ECU remap to 325hp and 640NM, top speed limiter removed
245/30/20 front and 285/25/20 rear
works out the correct rolling radius and should clear nicely.

EBAY?
Noticed a set for sale this week and was very tempted.
As far as tires, I think there is a 3-way split on the board, so let me try to break it down:
Good price, good preformance, very poor treadwear- Continental Contisport
Decent price, very good preformance, decent treadwear- Bridgestone S03 PP
Expensive, very good preformance, decent treadwear (LOOKS GREAT)- Michellin Pilot Sport ps2
No pirelli's for me, bad experiences w/ a porsche.
I would choose Bridgestones, but that is a matter of taste, all three choices are very worthy.
Good luck.
Look forward to seeing some pics.

yup, ebay.
It was kinda funny, i did not see them listed, but when i went to the shop...thats where i found them.
Feedback was good and the rims were too nice to say no to....
the only thing is that i have never seen a white e60 with the m6 rims, so i am kind of curious to see what they will look like.

Do you mind telling who makes the replicas and approx. cost? I am pricing some OEM Style 167's right now.
As far as tires go, Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 all the way.

I believe the company that makes replicas is named Moven and another is named Miro.
You can find some sets for sale on EBAY, that will give you a good idea how much they cost...typically anywhere from $900-1300 based on size i would say.
