usually gold fits BBS type of rims or three piece rims. Its hard to say if gold would look good on the forgestars.

I like the color they are, but if you must....then I like the color of the darker gold, I think the 3rd pic down (counting yours).
It will look sweet!

Stick with what you have, the gold doesn't look all that great on the 3 series so I dont think it'd look any better on your 5er
