After comparing and searching deferent OEM and After market wheels for my 545 I decided to customize ///M 166s wheels the way I Liked it. Lot of thanks to the forum member Kaizen who helped me to make this project possible. I decided to upload some images in case if someone likes it to have better ideas.
The wheels are OEM 166s Painted gloss black with machined face, and clear coated. Total cost come to $2100 but could be done much cheaper than that and the paint job could be better. But overall I am satisfied with the results. I have just 12MM spacer in the rear.

or you can just spray paint it and apply some BMW logo sticker on it. Total cost around $ 20.
The cover does look nice though but for $ 280, not sure if it's worth it.
Nice looking car OP. Love the wheels.
