I was on the highway last night and saw a 3series Alpine white coupe with some nice Black Rims with White lip... I thought it looked lovely and my fiance agreed.

Wondering if there are any available for the e60? Anyone on the forum have this setup with pics? I would love to get a pair of those for the summer. Thanks!

Contact member acuteperformance (Michael). You can get some nice DPE wheels in your choice of colors.

700 dollar per wheel from acuteperformance is kind of pricey

I would love to get these in black with white lip...

Any wheel can be powdercoated to any color combo.

I think I know what you're talking about in a 3 series. I remember seeing this one:

+1...but maybe a more subtle white pin stripe on the edge of the rim wouldn't look too bad.
