My Ride: E60
The 04/05 OEM wheels are great, IMO. I cannot stand most after-market wheels. They all look like they belong on a suped up Honda Civic with a big ole wing and a Flowmaster. Just my opinion and I know lots of you love those after market wheels.

The Brokers I've talked to are saying they can get BMWs for around $2K over invoice.

I must say I'm very disappointed in the factory wheel selection available for 2004/2005.
I'm considering SSR GT3s or PIAA Super Rozzas, (both attached).
Any comments?
Thanks...... Spartacus_33

I believe you'll have very cool looking wheels with either one, but I favor the PIAA. I did not know PIAA made/sells wheels as well,,, I thought they only had light bulbs....

I am going with the SSR GT3's. 19x8.5's up front and 19x10's in the rear with Bridgestone S03's.
I hope to have the car in the next 3 weeks and will post pictures.
