Abstract: In a former paper [Sz] a method is described that determines the data and the density of the optimal ball or horoball packing to each Coxeter tiling in the hyperbolic $3$-space. In this work we extend this procedure--based on the projective interpretation of the hyperbolic geometry--to higher dimensional Coxeter honeycombs in $\mathbb{H}^d, \ (d=4,5)$, and determine the metric data of their optimal ball and horoball packings, respectively.
