Paulie, i need you to remember something. YOU BOUGHT A BMW - why are you putting a 200 dollar wheel on this car?? You pay for what you get for the most part. I would say dont even put a 19in wheel that cost 200 dollars on your beeeeemer!

Go with a BMW OEM style wheel - M5, M6 or 172's. They just look right on the car. Never really been in to chrome/big lip wheels on a BMW.

I found you some 7 spoke wheels for 169 a pop, nice chrome lip. they arent oem look like everyone else is talking about but you cant argue with 4 brand new wheels for 680 plus tax.

Check out member polepositions Gallery. Look at his wheels. He has the 20" Breyton GTS wheels in Gunmetal and they look SICK!!!! And you can't beat the price, either.

Alright already:
PTL: Lighten up
AWG: It's Bimmer, not beemer (that's the motorcycle)
Tunbridge: It's OEM, not OME.
Paul: Check the classifieds forum for some great deals. Also, you may want to PM member Nerweezy, who knows a lot about wheels. GL

I appreciate all the comments I am not trying to have bargain basement wheels, but at the same time I wanted to keep it under $1600, because i would still have to buy rubber..
Does anyone know a good place to buy Miro's, then again do I want to do a replica..
