I think it looks pretty good.

And those don't look like 166 to me either.

I believe those are 20" wheels --> not OEM 166's

Those are not OEM 166's because you can see through the spokes in some of the pics.

You know they do look alot like 166's, at first i agreed that they werent, but they could have been refinished and tweaked a little to make those spokes look a little "sharper"... looks clean

I really dont see how doing this to your car is feasible for any daily driving though. It would drive me nuts driving that car around with the conditions of the roads around here, and some steep ass property entrances... damnnn

Slick look though, not very practical.

That E60 doesn't do much for me. I guess it's the wheels that don't appeal to me.

Those wheels look like modified 166's. Those seems to be painted black inside and then heavily machined on the front for the polished look.
