As mentioned in another topic, finally I made up my mind and bought 4 Alpina 19" alloy wheels.
Now, as soon as I will find somebody to switch the standard front and rear LCI bumper with my M style, I will go with Alpina front apron as well.
Here are some pics of the new wheels. I have also installed, temporary, the OEM rear mirrors until swapping my old M5 with the new M5 MY 2009.
