will see about that rims though because he doesn't want to spend too much
and 16" are just not worth it. But it is still a long time till next spring

Sorry, have been absent some time.

Style 122
Wheel Size: 17"
Tire Size: 245/45R-17 - run-flats

Thanks. They look great. And I imagine, being 17", they keep the ride supple, too.

God bless,
Tom

These rims keep the ride souple though with the runflat tires on it, it feels a lot harder than my previous cars (volvo xc90 and volve 850 stationwagon before that)

The reason I chose those rims, 2nd to the fact that i like the way they look, is that a five spoke rim looks bigger than the rims that have a lot of spokes.

There's also a difference putting them on a touring or on a the sedan version. For me they look a lot better on a touring.

Thanks for the nice comment by the way.

Are you also driving an E61 ?

Grtz.
