Here is an idea if you want to stand out in OC - keep the car completely stock.
Maybe its just me, but to spend a few thousand just to "stand out" makes no sense.
But to each their own I guess.

Not to stand out...just to personalize it...there is a difference
If you really like it, go for it; it's a personal choice

i dont think the e60 is sporty enough for gold rims.
gold rims were common on vintage race cars, so i think they look good on certain color 911's and ferraris, but not on a sedan...

There are lots of other rims on the market that would look much better. Just my 2 cents.
