Default WTB: 19in wheels/tires for 2005 E60 sport - 167 or 166 preferred

Finally (just) moved from an e46 to an e60. Black, sport package - love the car (though I miss the e46 a bit!)

I'd like 19 in staggered wheels/tires if price sensible. There are aftermarket 18 in 5 split spoke wheels on the car right now (decent tires).

I like the style 167s (highest preference), the F10 M5 style and the style 166s (convinced by pics from this forum)
Steel/polished preferred, although grey/black are possible.

(I don't want the 172 style or the wire spoke (VMR?) style now, and I'd prefer not to use spacers or hub rings)
Don't need the latest forged superlight rims (I'm going 0-25 in traffic most of the time between stop signs), just looking at somewhat reasonable price options (good quality replicas are fine)

Will consider decent tires if mounted.
Also welcome any great replica suggestions from this forum if you know of good quality (I had Miro M6 reps on my e46, can't find recommendations for good quality reps now)

I'm located in Chicago. Please PM me if you have any around here to sell (shipping cool if cost reasonable). Thanks!

Generally not a fan of 'many spoke' (you get the point) wheels, but the Miro 111s do look nice on E60 pics on the forum. Thanks for the recommendation!
Was this purely a recommendation (thanks) or do you have a set for sale?

Thanks for the heads up.

Bump if anyone else has opinions or wheels to sell! Thanks!
