I have no doubt that you'll find the forums and some of the members on here with a wealth of information as I have. Plus its definitely a great place to get ideas for modding thats for sure. I think must have I looked at over a hundred E60's before I finally decided on some rims! Now if I can just get them delivered, hehe

haha thanks, yeah it's awesome. I can't wait!

I got the dealer to throw in some tints, but I want to get some 19inch black rims too. What ones did you get? The hardest part is that with the 550i is that it comes with some amazing rims already.
