Hey bimmians, thinking of running 19's (8.5 with 245s in front and 9.5 with 285s in back) Still debating over Hartge Classics or Hartge Nova 5. They're both sweet and bling with some aggression...

Are those wheels silver? Why are you going to get 19's instead of 20s?

Why there are so many people using hartge for their E60 ? In my opinion, the wheels don't really look good on E60. Maybe it's my own opinion. I have seen a couple of E60 on the roads using hartge classic. Doesn't suit to my taste though.

Yea, they're silver. I was worried about ride quality with the 20's. Already got the sports pkg. Unles you know from experience that 20's aren't bad on the ride let me know. And type of tire you would run one???

After reading many posts, the people here who have 20's say there is not alot of ride quality loss and that there is minimal to no rubbing at all. People with 20s are using low profile tires...don't know exactly the numbers. I don't own a e60, I want to though hehe. But anyway...I honestly am not feeling the wheels you chose for the 5series...if you are open for personal opinions then look at superbuywheels.com ... they have a huge selection on wheels. I like Asanti's deep dish rims, collectizone is nice as well. But that's just me. So check it out tell us what you think. Good luck.
