Don't do it dude. Trust me. And you'll hear it from everyone else. Don't go that route. Save up some money and buy OEM 166 M5 wheels, or OEM 167 M6 wheels, or OEM 172 550i Sport wheels.

That is if you want to just go OEM.
+1, or aftermarket

That's kind of like walking into a biker bar wearing a pink skirt and ordering a cosmo, while offering to help push the stool in to the guy next to you.

This forum is decidedly anti all things chrome.


I guess I'm not a band wagon jumper like most on the forums here.
I have a black on black 545i with Beyren Mesh Chrome and I get props ever day on my rims.

It's your ride, you do what you want to, as long as you're happy with it.

Alot of peeps on the forums here have great looking rides.
But they did what they thought looked best for them.
