some have gone w/ 22s even with lowering, but i think they still rolled their fenders. you could get 19s or 20s and not have to roll fenders at all.

Any sedan/saloon with 22'"s I have seen look insanely stupid and tacky. But then its not my car.

I have to say I agree, 19" (or maybe 20") is about the biggest I think looks good on a sedan (and the E60 in particular).

I think E60's need at least 20's, and the biggest should be 21's

a number of 19s could pass for 20s cosmetically to others. for example, my 128s, the 166s, 167s, 172s since there is no lip.
