SO after deliberations, I got these. (start you puke icons)

After you guys butchered my Photoshop skills (haha) and the rims I was thinking of getting, I got these.
19"s. Got what I believe was a good deal. All I'm missing are the wheelcaps (old ones didnt fit)

They look like 17's...

I think BMW went away from the big lip on their wheels because they make larger wheels look smaller. If you look at all of the new wheel designs, they all have the spokes extending all the way out to the end of the rim, giving them the appearance of larger rims...

yeah, I hear you on the look. It was funny, the 17's looked larger but when install time came iI was sweating these 19's fitting in the wheel well. Ha. Well, I guess all that matters is that I like them. Just sharing.

Right. As long as you like them, that's all that matters.

I agree with Tightie...you should look into a lowering kit.

Man you guys are something else! . k. The dirt, I have washed the car twice this week and it has rained 3 times. I quit!
They look too small. Well here's the final veredict hehe. I think they will look much better once I cap them, and I think Im a shitty photographer. Honestly I dont think the pics do them justice. I had a buddy come over yesterday and the mfer wants them for his 330C.
Well, Enjoy the last set. Too bad I couldnt make the San Jose meeting today
or i mean

hey man, no need to prove yourself to others, as long as you like it, ENJOY it!

Of course, other people have different tastes and point of views, and that's just that, it's their opinions, nothing more, just take them with a grain of salt.
