If I remember a couple of years ago after the e39 came out, BMW offered an "M" wheel option. This was the 17" M style 66 wheel. A forged wheel option. I was checking out the wheels on the "kalach @ easynet" site and noticed a 19" wheel called styling 172, which I thought looks pretty nice. Has anyone seen this wheel on a E60 yet? Better yet anyone have pictures? I wonder if it will be offered as an option on the '06 5ers??

I have ordered the wheels on my next five without seeing any in the metal but I'm starting to think they don't look as good as the standard wheels. As you will see from the picture its a full on view, which can be misleading. I believe wheel spokes should splay outwards not in as the picture seems to be showing - similar to last M3 maybe
