Hi to everyone,
I've been researching A LOT on the wheels for my 530i E60. I have found several popular models and I cant decide which one is best for me.
I am also trying to find other options, so if you know any other plese let me know!
So I am looking for 19" in Gloss Black finish or Chrome finish (depending on what wheels I get I will be modding my car accordingly - black bits or chrome bits). By the way my E60 is in Mystic Blue colour.
I am very concerned about the weight, I want rims not more than my stock 18" 28lbs.
Here are my options:
VMR V710
MRR GT1 in chrome
Beyern Baroque in chrome
Breyton RaceGTS
Forgestar F14
Miro 111
Tell me what you think.
Thanks!

I like the VMRs, Breytons and Miros....in black, not chrome. Just a heads up that most people on here despise chrome on our cars so be prepared to take some criticism. In the end though, it's your car so do what you like.

I vote for the forgestar in black, please no chrome. Have you considered matte black?
this is mrfva car with the forgestar f14's in matte black, I think they look great.
