I think it all depends on what type of "scheme" you are gonna have on your car. Many did not like the performance kit....until they saw it on my car....many did not like the Vorsteiner V-302's...until they saw them on my car....it is how you put the total package together......in the link above...ehhhh....not so cool....accesorize properly and then you could have a winner. I have seen WAAAAAAY to many "me too" CSL reps on this forum...I think almost ANYTHING else right now is welcome IF done correctly.

I think the GTSRs in black with the red stripe would look pretty good. Especially if you also paint the brake calipers red.

I think you should go with what you like? Why not? You should be excited about it.

We all get used to seeing a certian style wheel on a car and that is cool if you like them. I am not of fan of many of the commonly used wheels I see. It is not a bad looking wheel and if you like go for it. Even though it is not my exact cup of tea, I do like the black against the white color of the car and the accents.

I think those wheels would look better if they were polished in one metallic tone. The black paint throws it off for me. But, on an all black scheme, they may work.

I like "studs" look, as it reminds me of 2/3 piece racing wheels.

The semi-mesh style, you're second choice, is tired and overplayed on a BMW, but you notice that plenty still like it.
Overall, go with what you like, that's really all that matters.

I don't like them, seems like something I would have put on my Corolla in high school, sorry : /

I think the BMW crowd is hard to please, nothing is even standing out to me looking at AC Schnitzer and Hamann's offerings.
