Hey Everyone. I just purchased a 2008 528i blk / blk. This is my first BMW and I am ready to get the moding started asap. Any ideas or direction would be greatly appreciated. Looking forward to contributing to the site!

BTW, Has anyone put 22's on their E60?

Thanks

G.

Are they just too big? In the gallery section there is a car on 22's and it looks insane. All good. I will stick to 20's......

popular opinion is that 22" wheels are too big, 21" is even pushing it...20" is a good balance of looks and performance it seems...personal preference always takes precedence when it comes to mods tho...

GL and to the forums
