Finally after debating between this or the m6 style wheel, i decided on this one. Love how the inside is flat black and only the face is graphite.
My car is gray so hopefully it will look nice. But i am thinking of changing the front two small grills to flat black to match the wheels. What do you think??

Also, what is the exact wheel size for the 530xi?

Sweet! What wheels are those? I have a grey (Titanium Grey Metallic II)car too and I'm having problems picking wheels for it as well. I was also looking into silver faced wheels with black windows.

very nice...what wheels? Also, you want to go with 19's probably 245/35/19 in front with 8.5 width and 275/30/19 in rear with 9.5 width

35 offset in front and rear for an agressive look. look at my gallery and you will see 35 in front and 33 in rear in the same setup.... Also, what are the prices you are getting on that wheel?

Hey! No idea what brand these wheels are I went into a wheel shop in Glendale that my relatives buy wheels from, so they showed me a few options that i can pick from since my car is a little complicated because of the all wheel drive. When i go to get them installed i will find out the brand and let you know

Since it's an XI i thought all wheels and tires are going to be the same size? I dont know much about the sizing to tell you the truth the guys at the shop said they will be able to order those wheels for my car and no spacers or anything will be needed which i am happy about...
I'm getting a really good deal.. $1500 for wheels and tires
