My Ride: '07 530iSport PackageLuxury Packagemore to come
Went to the wheel and tire shop today and got new shoes for my baby. I posted a pic last week and everybody poo pooed the wheels but after I saw them in person I had to do it. 20 X 9 and 20 X 10.5 with Nexen 3000 tires, 245/35R20 and 275/30R20. The guy at the wheel shop was supposed to send me pics but I haven't gotten then yet so I will post then as soon as I get them. Here is the wheel again.
I got thumbs up from two other BMW drivers on my way home and the wheels are the only thing different on my car so I'm thinking they must look pretty darn good. I like them and I'm glad I went against the grain and got something different. Now, anybody want to buy some 123s with good tires on them?

ok, first, I love these wheels (aren't they the same wheels that Tango had on his 7er in Brooklyn's Finest? That was a good movie btw ) anyway, I love these wheels and I think they are really hot
Second, I wanted to ask you if you have any rubbing issues with these sizes?

Daym, Joon, take it easy on grandma's medicine I like these wheels. Much like I like the Breytons you've got - you don't see anyone breaking my balls about that, do you?

Anthony has a point though, I think - custom-painting or p/c'ing these may set them off just right for everyone else to see. But since you just got them, just enjoy them and don't forget to post some pics when you get a chance
