My Ride: 2008 550I LOADED, all options except HUD and NV
My father-in-law has been working at Aluminum Precision Products for over 20 years and I am going to ask him about some custom rims (I like different remember). Just curious if anyone else was interested.

Sounds like a great opportunity to get custom wheels. 
I'm sure folks are probably wondering what styles are possible and the price.

They would be custom - so pick the design you want. Price? I will talk to the in-laws this weekend and get a guesstimate

I just thought of this because I really like my OEM 125's but the only thing that would make them better? If they came in 20" so my wife told me to ask her dad, he can probably make them in 20" and I'd be a very happy camper

That would be interesting. 
What kind of design would I want.

Nice John!
Price of course could make or break this hook-up of yours... To me the word "Custom" is automatically associated with "Expensive".
If they are reasonably priced, you may have just gotten yourself a big window for that M5 with the money you'll be making off these.

My Ride: I have an 05 545i. It's a manual with a few options. This is my first BMW but I don't know how I'll ever be able to switch to something else.
Can I get this on some 22s?
