What tires does it use? Dunlop something? 3000? 9000? Check this picture... It's BMW 5 series with Hammann, looks great

I'm really having a tough time warming up to these unattractive new BMWs.

They're the 9000s. I just zoomed in on the sidewall and thread.

After seeing and being up close to the 7 series, this car looks great! If that is the only complement I can say, that is not that good. I have seen a few around here and I think that they look a bit Asian to me. Also, it is so aggressive that many potential buyers say it does not project the image that they want.

BMW purists will love it, I'm sure. You could paint and badge a turd "BMW" and as long as it rides and handles like they want it to they will LOVE it and say it is the best.

The way I see it, BMW is attracting the Honda Civic / Acura Integra / Mitsubishi Eclipse kind of crowd. I am only 31, but this design does not appeal to me too much. But I am an old fart at heart!

These are my opinions and that is how they should be interpreted. You should not try and convince me otherwise and I am not trying to convince you either. For all of those BMW fans that read this; if you buy this car, that is your choice and I will respect it. I am sure the performance is fantastic!!! But this car is like a scooter: fun to ride until your friends see you.

If you think new 5 series' exterior looks jacked, wait till you sit in one for a few minutes. The dash is an eyesore and the rest of the interior looks it was made of cheap materials. I strongly believe that the craftsmanship and looks of the E39s is superior to the E60s.

My freind has a new 530d and the interior is awfull. He hates it compared to my W211, it looks awfull and feels worse, just a cheap load of crap.

What have BMW done????? I am trying to think of something nice to say about the car........

Here goes, "I suppose its mother likes it".

I quite liked the old style BMW's the M3 cabrolet, and M5 were mouth watering these new shape vehicles are also 'mouth watering'

Finally I do not like low profile tyres either. On any car!! Apart from those on a nice smooth race track.

Sorry for being so negative,
Grumpy John
