I thought the same, but just wanted opinions. Maybe with some powdercoat it would look better? Otherwise it looks straight out of the 80s

Not to sound patronizing, but they actually look good on yours. I hadn't seen them actually on an E60 before, just saw the rims. Myabe they can look good, like I said - with some powdercoat?

I just kinda like it because too many have 172's or 166's, if I am going OEM it will have to be something I don't see everyday. The whole idea of mods is to be unique and the others just aren't unique anymore.

Appreciate it. Yeah I decided to keep the OEM look with the wheels. Some like, some dont.

Hey they look really good on your car. I kinda feel bad now cause I came across a set a couple months ago and I didn't get them cause I didnt think they would look good.
