Thumbs up Check out this E39 528i rocking M6 wheels

These pics from Bimmerpost really caught my attention & I wanted to share them with those who have a true appreciation for cars. This timeless E39 looks stunning with these wheels imo.

You can never go wrong with e39 looks just simple and classy. Almost purchased a 540i over the GS but it dint seem that good looking ( on the interior color, black would have been killer) Hot pics!

I have seen a lot of this M6 wheel swapping on cheaper BMW's recently and I have to say it look great. I bet the wheels come at a premium or are a pain in the *** to come across

I've been seeing them on E90/92s here and there and they look alright. But yeah, I think it's becoming more common though I don't imagine it's a cheaper alternative to aftermarket wheels.
