I have a blacksapphire 545i sportpackage, Mtech body kit. About to buy rims this week for the spring....Any suggestions on the look/style? Pics of memebers with the same color car and rims on it?

Thanks in advance

Google... search forums... come on man, its a personal taste question! There are enough signatures and pics around for you to see... also look at the vendor section of the forum. Certain online distributors have sites that will actually put the rims on "your car" for you to see...

to my over the border friend.... it took me 6 months to decide on wheels. I did just what jaycal recommended, search the forum and plenty of photos available doing just that.

Go with OEM and style that came with car. Otherwise, they will probably be ugly.

Hey, the OP asked for oppinions. In my oppinion, most if not all aftermarket wheels are ugly. Whenever I am in the market for a used car, I immediately ignore any vehicle with aftermarket wheels...ruins the look. OP asked, I answered. No biggie if you dont like the answer.

Oh relax man... I just thought it came off a bit funny thats all. You are entitled to your opinion... although your reasoning above may have helped a bit in the original response you posted.

I'm relaxed. But, the first post got my point across with fewer words.
