i was thinking about powder coating or black chrome. i just got a set in at the dealer i work at and figured id throw them on for something different. cant beat free wheels and tires. just for shits and giggles.

Go to the gallery and look around; i'm sure i've seen at least one 5er in there with those wheels on it. something about the combo just doesn't look right to me though. I'll stick with my 128s.

+1. The stock wheels on the 545i are the 124's correct? I like those more.

If anyone does want to get a set of these Style 121 6er wheels, here is some I found for sale for $750 shipped in the US. That's a pretty good deal, if you like the style (which I don't on a 5er):
