My Ride: 2006 Titanium Silver 550i, with all the bells and whistles!!
How do you think these would look on my ride? I am, or am not yet, a fan of the chrome lip, but there is something about these that I like! what do you think? Also, what are your opinions on hamann rims. I am familiar with the name, but thought they did body kits an lips and stuff?

I do not like them at all. I've not seen an e60 with those, but I've seen other models with them and to be absolutely honest I think they are horrid. I believe there are way better rims out there but as you know - to each his own.

when i look at rims, i say, would these look better then the stock rims. if the answer is no, keep the stock rims. for me, in this case, the answer is no.

I really like the Breyton Race 20's, but I really don't want 20's on my daily driver. I already have 20's on the other car, and one bone-jarring ride is enough.

Like others have said, there are better rims out there for the E60. These old style Hamann wheels used to look great on E39s but they are dated in appearance now.
BTW, the Hamann Edition Race wheels would look awesome but they're about $8K+ a set, without tires. Besides for body kits and wheels, Hamann is also a complete tuner, making exhaust systems, springs, software....and they've expanded way beyond BMWs to cover exotics like Ferraris, Lambos, and Astons.
