Hi Guys new on here was looking on ebay don't know if anyone has brought the following wheels

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/19-E60-SPORT-ALLOY-W...%3A1|240%3A1318

or

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BMW-E60-M5-style-20-...%3A1|240%3A1318

Any advice would be appreciated.

Currently got the genuine 18" mv2 alloys and they look to small for the car I think, would like to upgrade to 19 or 20 inch alloys.

Thanks

Del.

Don't know why the are fitted with 245/40/19, 275/35/19

You will want to go with the recommended 245/35/19 and 275/30/19

Do yourself a favor and stay away from replicas.

+1 for not going with either choices since they are reps....go with OEM if you are going to go with either style.....

One thing to notice, the M5 replicas that are being sold, DO NOT LOOK LIKE THE OEM Wheels. I have seen this personally, the replicas do not curve, the spokes do not curve out like the OEM ones.
