172s are IMHO, the most beautiful of all of the E60 wheels. I adope mine. Putting them on your 535 will not make you a poser. Putting a 550 badge on your 535 would.

Wheels are wheels, get what you like to make your car look good. At the end of the day, the only folks who will know are BMW drivers and as others have said, as long as you don't re-badge it then your fine.
