17" and non-chrome. The ones on there now are chrome (from the previous owner) and they're far too bling for my taste.
I really like the 5 spoke look but I'm open to other suggestions as well. I'm fine with good quality replicas as long as the BMW emblem will fit on them. |  |  | | 02-18-2007, 02:49 AM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: Los Alamos, NM Posts: 344 |

BBS rims are always a good choice. Marcus has some really great style 5s for sale in the for sale section. | | | | | 02-19-2007, 08:41 PM | #6 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: North Carolina Posts: 157 |
You have two sets of rims showing on that cardomain link, which ones are you selling?
Also, I think they're probably going to be a bit out of my price range, but it depends how much you're willing to knock off.
The less I have to spend the better really, I've seen some for sale on ebay for ~400 or so, but ~500-600ish might not be prohibitive if I really really like them. | | | | | 02-22-2007, 07:01 PM | #7 | | Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2006 Location: Westfield, IN Posts: 1,335 |
mille miglia 11-2 like what dustenT has my friend might give me his on his 328is
you can also put a bmw emblem sticker on the wheel to not have the mille miglia emblem on the rim __________________ Greg

I like these rims, but they're expensive like BBS rims. Volk TE37. | | | | | 02-22-2007, 11:04 PM | #12 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: Ireland Posts: 382 |
