Welcome Orientblue530i.

Go the the gallery section and the Aftermarkt Mods and Wheels section. u should see a wide variety of just what u are seeking. You can do searches for wheels as well and find some pretty good discussions on pros/cons on the wheels, places to buy, pitfalls, impact on performance and all. It will take u awhile to to ferret it out but u will come away impressed with all the variations and opinions. There IS something for everyones' taste.

www.tirerack.com is your friend. Those guys rule... they will not let you buy wheels or tires that will not fit your vehicle.
