That is a nice ride with "pimping" rims.

Personally, I think chromes are outdated. I only see it on most early year cars wanting to change from their stock 15-16" rims to 19-20". Also, low riders.

Just my opinion.

Chromes can only work on the 7 series, even then it's still iffy.

I'm usually not a fan of chrome wheels but they're okay on some cars and some colors. I've seen some chrome wheels on Alpine White E60s and they look great.

In this case however, I think the wheels themselves don't look right on an E60. I've seen similar wheels on Mercedes and Chrysler 300s.

Nice looking wheels, I do think that they take away from the sporty look of the 550. I can see them on the 7, when all said and done the key is that you like them.
