I agree - that 19" 'spider' design is great on an E60/61.
I've run my 330d on various wheels and tyres - 17" non-RFTs, 18" RFTs, 19" non-RFT and 19" RFTs.
From 17"s (and from 18"s to a lesser extent), the handling is improved considerably on 19"s, and is best on 19" RFTs. The reverse is true for ride, but there is not that much difference to be honest between 17" non-RFTs and 19" non RFTs. The car rolled and wallowed alot on 17"s - to the extent that it is not nearly as enjoyable to hustle down a twisty road - so in my experience there is more to the issue than just fashion.
My other car is on 16" non-RFTs - but the ride is better in the BMW with 19" non-RFTs.....
