Look for a set of 172 wheels on the forums, best looking BMW wheels in my opinion, I had a friend who had Miros and didn't like them, you can't go by pictures, not all wheels look good on the E60..

Take a look at M5 wheels, there's alot of replicas out there...
Happy hunting

lots of replica rims on ebay. You can get a nice set for $600 and up. Need to add TPMS, $200 for 4. Then tires. Unless you stay same size and transfer.
VMR are nice. Breyton. Look around.

Gun metal looks great on a grey/silver car. Usually the 19s are 245/35/19 8.5" width front and 275/30/19 9.5" rear.
Black rims are not my cup of tea, too Darth Vader.

Thanks. Grey would look nice on your car, no doubt! I run the tire sizes that Oceans10 posted.

I enjoyed the Darth Vadar reference The best I ever heard so far though was a guy in a parking lot who said he liked my car looking "all murdered out". I cracked up

The Miro 111 wheels look great on the E60 models. They do feature a concave design that we have all grown to love. In my opinion, the 20" fitment looks best on the E60 as the car is a lot bigger. Here are a couple more pictures for you guys to check out!

You just need a vanity plate for your car that reads AxMurdr. That would complete the DV look! I bet you would get a lot of comments at gas stations, or at least people staring at you from behind locked doors.

LOL...I love it! I went and checked the California DMV website and 'AXMURDR' is actually available. They require an explanation of what the plate means - that could be interesting

OMG! You gotta do it now. Perfect. What a riot.
Just say you are naming the car in your grandfather's honor. His name was Axel Murdrianovski.
