Style 37M wheels to F10

Anyone ever fit 19" M Parallels to the F10 body style? I have the non-staggered 351M currently, but have always like the M Parallel style on older 5's and 7's...

Thanks for replying. The style 125 is pretty close - suspension geometry aside, I miss wheels that have a "rim" like the 125 and 37M. Most of the new styles, concave ones even, are so flat.

I like wheels with a lip too, sadly the f10 can't have lips as deep as the e60 did. the black wheels on my silver e60 had 6 inch rear lips, now that's DEEP

Mpars FTW - my 2003 540i M-sport - Mostly Stock (except for exhaust/intake/shadow grilles/eibach sway bars)

I have to agree the deep lip wheels don't look the best on the f10's in my opinion. Concave looks way better

Nice M-sport - I've always liked the E39 body style, especially with M-parallels! To each his own, though on whether this would look good on the F10... PJ had answered another wheel post with pics of deep-lip wheels on the F10 - check it out and see what you think.

Can't seem to link it here, though....
