www.e60.net is very good albeit there is no separate UK section like here.

Lot's of helpful advice there and I visited often when I had my 530d

Still a picture of it on there:

You should be able to see the picture now Chris. I forgot that you can't see hotlinked images from their site unless you are logged in.

They were 245/35/R19 on the front and 275/30/R19 on the rear. Very low profile so alloy dings were a nightmare.

Even with 275's on the back, with DSC off it would spin the rear wheels in 2nd

E60 is a big car and it really needs 19's.

If it had been an msport and had the 230hp engine I would have probably kept it. Lovely car for cruising, but too big to throw around on B roads.
