My Ride: 2007 Sapphire Black Metallic 525i. Beige Dakota Leather, Premium package, bluetooth, BMW Assist, Xenon adaptive lights, Sirius radio
Not a fan of black or black chrome wheels. They remind me of the wheels you see on auto test mules that you see pictires of in disguise. They also remind me of the all black steel wheels that require a hubcap.
The style is nice, but, I do agree that it will be hard to keep clean.

I am not a fan of the solid black myself but liked the contrast this wheel gave and the chrome lip as well. I will put some hubcaps on them and truck nutz on the rear when all comes in.

Truck Nutz! Ha! I'd read about these on the forum several times and finally went to their website a month or so back to see what people were talking about. I'd never seen them in person. Then, about two days later, I went to an appointment and there was a pick-up in the parking garage with a set of blue ones under the bumper. My thoughts at that moment: 1) Hey, what a coincidence!, and 2) Someone actuallly bought those things!?!
