I have been considering new wheels and have decided on the 167s. Does anyone know if the OEM 167s will fit on the e60.
Also, has anybody had experience with replica wheels.
Thanks

I don't know something about replicas but no problem at all with 167's as it is identical to 166's dimensions.
But, take care: 167's for M5 not for M6 because they have different offset at the rear and you won't be able to fit wider tire than 275. The front ones are exactly the same.

My Ride: 2006 550i - silver gray, black leather, anthracite, logic7, cold package, SMG, sport, M Aero, nav, sat radio (due 11/05)
2004 545i, silver gray, tan leather, steptronic, sport, nav, cold package (on its way out...)
so, if I want to replace my 18" stock 550i wheels with either 166s or 167s, what size front and rear tires would be recommended?

My Ride: 06 (Oct. prod.) 530i Titanium Silver / Black Leather - prem. pkg., step,nav,park dist,comf seats,xenon, push start, comf accs, rear fold seats...can't remember anymore...
Mods: Radenergie R-10's 20x 9,20x 10 Mich PS2 tires 245/35fr 285/30rr, Eibach prokit springs, AC Schnitzer front lip, ACS side skirts, ACS exhaust, ACS silver carbon interior and Hamann rear trunk spoiler...to be cont.
actually if u check a tire calculator to get the exact overall size as the stock wheels...u would have to use 245/40/19 fr and 275/35 /19 rears...yet no one seems to use that setup and i dont know why.

It's like the others have said, for a non-M car --> 245/35/19 F and 275/30/19 (or 285/30/19).
