Im trying to figure out what kind of rims to get on my Black 2007 550i BMW. I really like the way HRE makes their wheels and am trying to pic out the ones that look the best on my car. However i am having trouble finding any pictures online to help make my decision. From what i see on the http://www.hrewheels.com/ i like the 898R, and the 945R but i dont really know which will look good on my car. I also would like to add i will be customizing the rims to be black so its gonna be black on black with tinted windows. Any advice or pictures is greatly appreciated.

thanks

The 940R series wheels for some reason tend to look really small once you get them on. I would definitly go with an 890R or 590R series wheel, since there going to be slowly fazing out the 540R series wheels. And the 590 nad 890 wheels are lighter due to the new spoke construction. I'm going with the 893R or the 890R in 21" satin black probably.

Is the Black M5 in the previous post a BBS or a RAC wheel? or something else?

From what I've seen the RG41 doesn't have the studs. Regardless both are gorgeous wheels.

I'm not too familar with RAC wheels, are they a trusted high-quality brand? If so any known dealers for their wheels.

Appreciate any clarification. Thanks in advance.

That silver m5 looks amazing with the black HRE's but the rest are :thumbsdown:

Looking at those pics especially the Indy Red M5 I dont have any desire whatsoever to spend a million bucks on some HREs when you can get a billion other forged wheels that are flooding the market today at a fraction of the cost.
