What is the best set of rims for E60 with a budget of $3500, rims and tires?
Any recommendations?

Do you want OEM look, bling, race, or wheels with a lot of lip? We need to know what you're looking for.


Check out the e60 galleries and check out the cars.

Does performance play a factor in your wheel decision? 20"s will affect your performance. 19"s would be ideal. The two lightest OEM 19" wheels I know of are 167 and 101.
