I got the wheels done finally and ended up going with a black lip and color matched face. The lights are smoked along with the side markers.

Looks good, what a difference 
I would have kept the lip chrome for contrast, but as long as you are happy with it...all good 
your e60 almost looks purple in that lighting...

I like the fact that they look all black until the sun hits them and they stand out.

IMO, that wheel design doesn't mate well with the car at all. And, IMO, smoked lights don't belong on a luxury car; at least not that dark.

For that tinting and those wheels to work well your gonna have to put some kinda bodykit on it. So far so good, but it will "mesh" well once you got more done. I recommend mtech. I also would of kept the chrome lip for contrast. Good luck
