My Ride: My ex-ride: EU '08 LCI 520dA. Space Grey, Sport Seats in Black Leather/Fabric Anthracite, Sport Steering Wheel, A/C with Extended Features, Hi-Fi Speakers, Cup Holders, Cruise with Braking function, Folding Rear Seats, Xenons, Park Distance Control.
What a nice car Seip??nreik? 
The xDrive will make it a bit harder to find a nice non-RF 19" set, that is good for the BMW.
The optimal look for a E60/61 is 285/30 R and 245/35 F,
but you can't the get 285 rears since the xDrive need to have the balance on the tires.
The 275's rears are almost obligatory for the looks and then the car should be lowered also.
Good luck!
Ps. I got my summer wheels from here.

I thought a lot about it before ordering... Two color interior is nice. Very dark brown seats makes good contrast when everything else is black.

Thanks for that link.
I sent them a message to ask about two different wheel prices (without tires), and I was quite shocked with the prices they quoted in reply - and in a good way. 135 M wheels were 600? cheaper than from BMW Finland.
It almost made me wonder if these are OE BMW wheels...
How was your buying experience with them? Shipping time to Finland?
I would be happy to hear.
Sorry for the hijack, Seip??nreik?!
