I think you should stick to the 166's. I gave up on the VB3's and I didn't like the 172's I had, so I am also looking out for a set of 166's...
Now I see a side profile of Indy's car, I am liking the Miro 111 in 20" even more. Indy, what tire sizes, rim diameters, and drop did you go with? I see you have 12mm and 20mm spacers, what spacers do you think for a non-m to acheive the same look?

How are you doing?
It's so hard to pick wheels. I wish I had not replaced new tires on my OEM BMW 123 wheels last month; would have been easier to be a bit reckless. :-)
Anyways, the kit from Tisch BMW should be delivered to Michaels Auto Body(Trinity) next tuesday. I hope I won't get disappointed with the transformation.
Have a great day, guys...

Hey guys,
I will be installing a BMW OEM M Aerodynamic Kit to my 2006 Titanium silver 530IA (sport and premium package) soon. Currently, I have the 18" OEM 123 wheels. I still like them because they have strong, solid and yet sporty looks...
Anyways, I am afraid the old wheels might not do justice for the new looks of my car. If it's not too much trouble, please post your recommendations and pics for a titanium silver 530i if you have available.
Thank you in advance for your help.

I got it for $1,350 + $175 for shipping; not tax. Total out the door is $1,529.95 from www.getbmwparts.com(Tisch BMW).
You got a better deal. :-)

Looks like the transformation has begun. Have you asked Nerwyll from Trinity or Michael from Acute Performance? Members have gotten great advice and deals from them. I personally like the Miro 111's.
