Does anyone know if the M166 fits the F10? I like the new M5 F10!
+1

RE: 166's, hub size is the same, not sure about the offsets, IIRC: F10 offsets are actually higher to begin with...

If they made a 2011 E60 M5, I'd choose the E60 M5 over the F10 M5! Period. I can't wait to see the new M6!

The F10 535/550i has a "road presence" because of the big grill and bright angel eyes.
I always have to move to the side when someone drives close to me.
I can imagine the new M5 will be more intimidating when it comes out.
Anyone who thinks that the new M5 should be more aggressive must be driving a 1 or a 3-series.
I'm glad my E60 still holds on its own but IMO, the F10 is a very good successor to the old 5.

When I hear the words "F10 M5" I seem to nurse a semi! Cant wait to see one in the metal.

They are closer than I thought in looks, but I think I would still have to take the E60.

Yes, very nice! But I really do not like the wheels.
