Thumbs up

I own a 04 530i with 17inch stock BMW 5 spoke wheels. I am about to change over to the 18inch M5 wheels.

I need to know what is ALL involved in changing over from 17inch to 18inch with my idrive, electronics, and the speedometer?

Email me at REPresley1111@aol.com with your answer.

Sincerely,

E. Presley

Nothing is involved as long as you keep to the BMW tire height and width. Your ride quality may suffice a bit..

New 99, 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, M5 BMW Replica 18in wheels/Michelin Pilot tires $1499.00 (Post #1)

Does anyone here at the forum ever bought or knew someone who bought BMW or any other make wheels from "The Wheel Exchange". This company also sells its products on Ebay and has a 99.1% rating from Ebay, and out of 1531 member/customer that left 608 Positive comments in the last 12 months, and 4 negative comments.

For Ebay customer comments since 2000 on their dealing with "The Wheel Exchange", SEE BELOW or Click on: http://feedback.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBa...eelexchange.com

Shop at The Wheel Exchange: http://thewheelexchange.com/

I just purchased and installed, four new BMW M5 Replica's from "Nathan" at "The Wheel Exchange" (SEE PICS ABOVE).

From time to time, check back here, and I will also keep the forum members inform how these Replicas do...or feel free to email me with your questions about my new wheels, and The Wheel Exchange...So far "The Wheel Exchange" company has been one of the best Company's that I ever dealt with. I must admit their BMW "M" Wheel Replica product looks great, (SEE ABOVE), but only time will be the real test.

Sincerely a E60 forum Member also,
