That's a preety sleek and elegant design, just not "sporty" (what people here normally look for).
And if you ask me, the 166s are the "poor man's dream", i.e. the man that can not afford an M5, but seeks to associate his normal E60 with an M5..

I think these wheels are from a 7-series (E65?) and I am sure they do look great on a 7-series.

Other E65 wheels have proven to look pretty good on an E60, just haven't seen these on an E60 yet.

What size are these? If they're 20', I would say that's too much. 19' would be ideal.

Agree with mmitev. Classy wheel that will look good if the're 19". 20"... well, I would vote against it both from looks and ride compromise.

These are staggered 19". And I totally agree with your comment about the "poor man's" 166. Too funny!!!! But So True
I think I'm gonna stick with my original choice of the 124's.

Bu. You have to see these in person. They come on the 335i sport. They are polished with low profile tires. It all depends on your stance. You have to be dropped right

Check out style 218. They look similar and are very nice on the e60... I am currently looking for a set.

Style 218 looks nice indeed.

I was wrong on 190s - its indeed a E60 wheel, and its 19 inch. Should look ok on a otherwise mostly standard E60.

Zagora - I love the 124s! Thumbs up for running these!
