I have always been curious about how Volks would look on our BMW E60s. I know everyone is not a fan of putting "JDM" wheels on our Euro cars, but it is quite popular among the M3 forum crowd and I personally think they look pretty good. Additionally, they are really light and strong, 1 piece forged wheels.

The max size the Volk CE-28n wheels come in is 19" so that's the size I was looking at. I've only seen TE-37s on PTL's car and I thought they looked pretty dang good.

I have new DPE wheels from Michael (Acuteperformance) ready to get put on my car so I'm throwing this out there only from curiosity .

Here's a picture of them on an E46 M3 and 350z:

*lol at the E46 M3 style grill on it*

Thoughts and opinion?! Oh and if someone can p-shop these on the E60 that would be great!

Yea that's what I was thinking, but these are pretty easy to come by on the various 3-series forums. And for the price, you can't get a better quality and performance oriented wheel (used price that is).

can't believe someone would put those side grilles on, those look like they were stolen straight off and m3 and then had the little M\\\ taken off.

I say take the plunge and get something different. I'm sure we could play around and make it work Ross.
