Nice wheels Claus
What offset are those 19" and what tires are you using ?

To 535xiT: Nearly everything regarding cars are more expensive in Europe (especially Norway) then in the states.
For instance: Breyton GTS wheels made in Germany costs about $800 here, but in the states they cost only $290 (at Tirerack)
Conclusion; the world isn?t round. It?s oval

WOW!

Don?t get too surprised!
My 535d is far more expensive here then a M5 in you country!
In here you we buy the basic 535d for the price of a fully loaded M5 up there!

Those wheels are great, but i would add some spacers on the rear!

Clause the Car looks great with those wheels.
Above you mentioned "ET 37 and ET 39" are those the wheel code names? Can I go to my dealer and tell him the code and he will know what I'm looking for?

I also spotted the camera hole in your front bumper grill, ... do you have the night vision option? If so, how is it working out for you?
I've ordered my 535xiT with Night Vision as a custom order, and can't wait to see it.
