Hello there!

Want to hear if you like these? VMR wheels

front 245/40/19
rear/ 275/35/19

Thanks.

Geez those are really nice. Great find.

That style is very popular but you should check the tire size to be sure it's proper ... And the staggered setup will look good on your Touring.

But, I think the standard square fitment for an e60 sport is 245/40x18 - maybe others will weigh in about the 245/40x19 front since that tire is about one inch taller.

Hello Mate,

yeah after double checking, the correct dimensions should be, front 245/35/19' rear 275/30/19

and what about these? concept

Measure twice - cut once!

I'm personally not a big fan of the rivet look wheels; brake dust is a problem as it is without making it harder to keep wheels clean. As for ebay sellers - I'd check with forum posters and shop "recommended" sellers. Some ebayers (not all - some) are selling products you may not be happy with.

These tyres will also fit, only check the ET of the wheels - there is a recent E61 thread (I think by alexio) exactly about this tyre size.

You don't even have to go that far for the build thread (though that one does look more complete)... He's right here in our own forum! :D
