Be very careful when selecting wheels or you will end up with wheels that won't fit. You can't get a lot of the wheels you see on other members cars that have the RWD models. Just a heads up.

The 550i does not come STANDARD with the M aero, you need to get the sports package and if you don't, you buy the kit separately for 2 grand.
Car looks great. Aside from wheels, which is a MUST, you should swap the chrome trim for Shadowline. It's cheap (order it from Garry Romani at BMW of Newport). Those 2 things alone will completely transform the look of the car from a non-sport, to a very classy, sport model (assuming you don't get chromed out wheels
).
