I love those Hartge 21" wheels. A M5Board member, here in NY, has them on his M5 and they look outstanding! They fill the wheel wells perfectly!

LOL! That other members car sold you on them, huh? I will tell you this...polished lips are the biggest pain in the butt to clean. Be ready to have lots of wheel polish handy. You'll be cleaning them at least once a week, depending on weather conditions and brake dust. The brake dust is so obvious on polished lips. It's terrible. On the stock wheels, you can barely tell. With these lips, it's god awful. However, when they are polished and clean, they look amazing. I love my wheels, regardless. However, I am very glad that I'll be throwing my stock wheels on for winter. The car will be so much easier to clean now.
