This posting is for the E60 owners who are considering purchasing new wheels for their new E60. I have learned a valuable $$$ lesson in purchasing new Replica BMW wheels for the ultra sensitive E60. If you in the market and decide to buy your new BMW Replica Wheels from The Wheel Exchange, or any wheel company you pick as far as that goes, but be sure to buy your new wheels and tires together that comes mounted and Road Forced 0 weight balanced, (or as close to 0 weight ROAD FORCE balanced as you can get), but purchased you new "wheels and tires" together, ready to go on your BMW once they arrive to you.

Sincerely,

PS
Now I only bought my wheels from The Wheel Exchange at an excellent price, (SEE BELOW), but I did not buy their tires, (I wished I would had, Hindsight, Live and learn, I suppose $$$! LOL)

Hey Pres,

Too bad you had to "live and learn" as it is a nice looking setup.
I hope it works out for you when all is said and done.

I've learned over the years that sometimes it costs more to "save money"
.... On the other hand, costing more costs more.

Best of luck and enjoy your sweet-looking ride!

Hi wiszmaster:

No, that is not the staggered wheel setup, although I could had bought it, for an additional $200.00 (wheels) from Nathan at The Wheel Exchange.

I think it a cool looking set up to have the staggered BMW Parallel M Replica wheels, but I am a business man that has to rotate my tires every 2,500 miles to a get decent tread life out of my tires.

Hi realtyman:

I had to come to "reality" on the way to purchased BMW wheels and tires from the same retailer, the hard way! $$$ (LOL)

But things did turn out great for me....this time... but I am going to take people advice and not be so cheap, because you are right, it did cost me $$$, going this route buying from two separate excellent retailers, "live and learn" (LOL)... I just could not believe all the great support I got from the wheel exchange and from Kauffman tires after I made my purchase from them in getting my wheels and tire balanced right! (A balancing machine that I never heard of before: SONAR Balancing? But it did work on my E60)

These are not BMW factory wheels, but an excellent BMW Replica wheel, (so far), and I did save about $3000.00 going this route over the factory wheels. I figure if they did not work out for some adverse reason, I could always buy the high price 18inch BMW wheels from "Chris Bangle" and $$$ his friendly $$$ BMW dealer $$$$ here in Atlanta Georgia, (just kidding about Chris $$$ Bangle, LOL, but Chris and his team is one smart thing for BMW).
