Hello all,

New to the 5 series, but I just traded my X5 for the 550i. I have read and looked at various post and the picture gallery here, and I have been rather impressed with the information and pics. Nice job everyone! I am itching to purchase wheels and just can't make a decision. I want to put 19x10 but don't want it to rub, and I don't want to have to roll the fenders or add spacers. Any advise is greatly appreciated. Thanks
