Hey guys, I'm upgrading the rims on my 06 525i and I have a few options but I wanna know which ones you guys prefer! My car is black with the chrome strip around the windows (non sport), I would like to go with silver colored rims as it accents well with that and I don't wanna shadowline it either because I prefer the look over black on black combo's.

Hard to go wrong with Miros or M5 wheels. Not a fan of the Niche's or F10 M5 wheels. For me it's Miros if you want something that stands out a little bit, 166 M5 wheels if you want something more on the conservative side.
at the end of the day though, it's your car; put whatever wheels YOU like the best, regardless of poll results.

They're all great choices. I'd probably go with the Niche or STRs.

I'm with you.. going to go with Miros so far.. I love the look. Although I am considering gunmetal if I can find it. I believe it's only silver and matte black.
I plastidipped my stock wheels black, and it certainly looks great.. but maybe a little too black on black for my car. I HATE brake dust and certainly don't wash my car enough though...... The plastidip did such a great job, I figure if I go with silver and it still is too dirty looking I'll dip them gunmetal or black again.
The next decision is how big/offset. Since I have an Xi model it's not as easy of a decision. I am leaning towards a square setup with spacers in the rear (12mm is what I put on now). But I do think it's not quite filling up the wheel wells enough. Maybe with a 19X8 or 8.5 width it'll look better.

Mirro 111 in 20x9 and 20x10
The other wheels show off to much brake and rotors for our non m cars.. I put 20" varrstoens under my 525 😍
Not sure about xi fitment.. My non xi fits them
