I think the E60 looks more substantial than E39. Therefore, wheels with wider spokes may look better than thinner ones. Just my opinion.

I'm also guessing poorer acceleration and handling. They do look good though

Well, tomorrow i will be getting my car back from the autobody shop. My wheels are also 20" and i guess the performance of the car will be not as gd as before. I'm also afraid of my tires getting rubbed. Argh.

SLVR530I,

What are you going to do with the wheels that are on your car now? They look really good.

I don't know yet, I might just keep them, for a back up set...and I still have the original 17's that came with the car-I'll probably use this set for long trips.

Thanks for the compliment
