I just bought them today got a really good deal on them. They are the Donz bugsy rims 20 by 10 in the back and 20 by 9 in the front i think not 100% sure on the front but i like them just gotta get some spacers soon. Ill try and post up a pic in the next couple of minutes. Cars filthy since it just rained but ill take some better pics later on this week after i get a carwash.

Also, those new rims are nice, but I'm surprised you didn't wait for winter to finish completely before putting on those tires?
IMHO, I would replace the chrome trim with shadowline.

I orignially paid 29000 for mine with 26k miles and i have most options except logic 7 sports package and hud if thats even available for the 530. My recomendation honestly is craigslist u find different dealers posting there cars then u go see the car in person for yourself. I bought mine from planet auto mall on northern blvd and 38th st but i dont really recomend them they definitly screwed me i ended up paying close to 40k for my car after all the bs taxes warranties. Im hoping to try and recoupe some money but i doubt it.
ok wow thats crazy how they try to get you.. yea ive been looking on craigslist and i often come accross these postings from auto expostore, they look like very good deals.. looks like i will be checking them out.. thanks for your info tho

Hey guys whats up? My name is john im 18 i live in Queens, NY. I drive a 2006 530i black on black which ive had since May of last year. No serious mods yet just tints and license plate leds. Tints are 20% in the back and 35% in the front. This is my third BMW. My first car was a 1989 535i then i bought a 1996 328is which was a huge lemon left me carless for a good 6 months forcing me to drive my dads 1994 landcruiser till i could save up the down payment for my e60. Anyway ive been lounging on this board for awhile never really posted but will defintily say that you guys all corrupted me haha but yea i look forward to learning from you guys
