The 60 is the saloon, the 61 the touring.

If 19" wheels were the reason for revising the suspension of the e61 M5, why do BMW 'approve' Alpina & ACS 19" wheels?

I have 19" staggered 172s and there are no problems with the fitting, I don't know about homologation though as the rules are different in each country.

Thanks guys for all the nice comments.

I agree till a certain standpoint as in EU the rules should be the same everywhere. That's why exist a homologation.

Hi Guys,
Here are some pics i just made of my car. I want to order some 19 inch rims this month but am not sure yet which ones cause not all seem to fit the E61.
I am thinking of the styling 125 or the M6 wheels but these might not fit my car. Some help at this issue might be welkom.
Regards,


Hi there.
I think your present wheels are super! I'm going for those 135M:s when my present (boring) style 122/ 17? are worn out.

Best from Lars.

You're right. I already decided to keep the wheels. They actually look great and i dont want any messing around with the homologation.
