I just bought my first car, a '06 alpine white 525i with navi, winter package, premium package, 21,000 miles pre-owned certified and maintenance free til 2012 for 34,000. I got them to throw in a M5 spoiler. I hope I did alright. I'm ready to mod the heck out of it but wanna keep them clean; but I don't want it to look like a racer like my beater '91 acura integra, haha. I enjoy reading everyones ideas on some clean mods and ideas on how to get them cheap. Right now I'm looking for some m5 and/or 545i rims with tires because the 525i rims aren't look'n so pretty. Thanks for reading my post and even more so if you post something.

to the forum, nice first car and c ngrats. Good choice on the 166 wheels. 19' always look good, Good luck with all your mods...you will have plenty of help on how to spend your money... .

For wheels you can check with Gary at newport BMW in Rhode Island. Info on his thread here,

a lot of memebers go thru him. Also check the classified sections often as memebrs arre always selling goodies for fair prices, and if t's not a good price other memebrs will let you know....

Enjoy the forums...
