i think matte kind of bronze is better.. not the kind of bling2 gold...

black or white E60 with bronze will look unique

i suggest only u do it if ur car is jet black or alpina white

166 wheels in bronze

now..thats jap + continental style combined

I think you should go with the gold rims and hook up with the guy that wants a hood ornament...

just me..... i i kinda like it... "to each is own" ...the rims your loooking at i think would look better if the face of the rim stretched out toward th the base of the lip vs having a step silver trim ..eric d... bronze as someone else mentioned also would look nice... anyways i know alot dont like chrome... but i went with it... and not just chrome but black chrome... its your car and personalize it your way... ericd

well like someone already said, those rims don't look that back on the black M3.

If you really like it, go for it; it's a personal choice

I agree with all of you saying it is matter of taste, my prev car was no luxus Bimma was a nice German
(orig.Czech car with a nice Hungarian Audi TT engine, the Skoda RS with 1,8 L engine and still 180 Hp was a Badass car
and smoked many big engine cars, was not chipped, oem Brembos in green, oem Sebring dual pipes and did 240 in Germany on 17" rims ordered from Italian factory I waited 2 months for them.

But on Bimma may be I would not, magnesium wheels are more for Rally Sports or for a mob car

I'm a fan of gold rims, but most of the pics in this thread however are not my taste.

Well saw this pic and thought I'd post it here
