IMHO you should ditch the BBS, too old style for your ride, OEM wheels are always nice and ofcourse love the Breytons:-)

On that note, keep the Breytons and M167 wheels, and sell me the BBS

+1000000 Yeah Roy, sell the BBS to Frank! It's so dated and ugly..hmm..I wonder why, after all these years, these RS-GT's still exist

By the way, when you price them to sell to Frank, keep in mind, TireRack has it on clearance now...

If appearance is your top priority, then I agree.

If performance is your top priority then the BBS wheels are the best. I just think that they look like the BBS wheels I have seen since the 1980s and that they don't lool good on a swoopy, curvaceous body design like the E60 -- especially one with all of the kick ass appearance mods on Roy's ride.

Roy, my brother still talks about how much he loved your car after seeing it at the Ross Docks meet in July.
