AC Scnitzer never seems to run out of ideas for fine-tuning BMWs with the announcement of their plans for a tuning package for the new BMW 5-Series. In addition to showing a glimpse of what could possibly be the tuner's first sets of wheels and tires for the 5-Series, AC Schnitzer is also working on a bevy of performance upgrades, exhaust systems, suspension solutions, aerodynamic components and accessories for the 5-Series' interior.

For now, though, the tuner is only offering Type IV 19-inch or 20-inch wheels, in BiColor or Silver color and 20" Type V lightweight forged wheels.

Press release

The new BMW 5-series saloon, model F10, has arrived! We've been eagerly awaiting the 6th generation of the 5-series for some time, and are delighted to welcome it finally into the BMW family.

Even before its official launch, the new BMW 5-series created rather a furore: with the longest wheelbase in its class, a long bonnet, short overhangs and a coupé-like roof line, it is about to be catapulted to the top of its segment. The 5-series by AC Schnitzer is already in our development department. Our engineers, designers and technicians are working flat out on an extensive product range comprising performance upgrades, exhaust systems, suspension solutions, aerodynamic components and accessories for the interior. We'll keep you informed!

Various wheel and tyre combinations are already available in 19 and 20 inch, which we are pleased to present.
