But I saw these today, and think I've fallen in love... It's not wrong to love two sets of wheels... right? Especially since they are different sizes.

i almost got those... but they look almost too sharp and too aggressive... so i pulled from buying

i think they're better suited for the 5-series:

Posting that picture of them on the 5 didn't help your cause! THOSE ARE SEXY!!! Alright, after I get a new(er) dirtbike, I'm getting a set of those... so I'll have a set of 18s to roll from time to time!

Icon, I've already got my eyes set on a coil-over kit, but I'm going to hold off for another 20k miles. These will look good no matter what! I can't do a very aggressive drop because of where I live.

Yes, I think you're on to something here.
I've actually been looking at these for a month or so.
Can't decide on if I'd like to go nutz with the 19" or mildly stretch some tires on a set of Matte Black 18"s and maybe a small spacer for that Stance Look.

You can get a set of the 111's brand new (without tires of course) for the same price as a lot of people are selling their '07' 6 spokes at now-a-days + Shipping.

Hmmm decisions decisions..........

Those wheels look like VMR wheels...

Personally, Ive never been a fan of the 07+ 6spoke wheels. A bit too angular for my tastes? To each his own :P

Sorry guys, I only know a few wheel brands (BBS, Volke, HRE) so I'm not familiar with VMR... I'll have to take a look. A lot of wheels look similar to one another, but these really caught my eye.

Now thats a nice BMW 5 series. When I was car hunting, I booked a test drive in an 06 5 series. We didn't get out of the dealership when the car developed a steering fault and had to go into the workshop. Glad it happened there and then as I was seriously considering buying the car.

I liked my CLS500 wheels when I had them but I love my OZ/AMG Aeros that I have now. Kinda wish they were 18s but I like my stance with the 17s. Might have to save up for a set of Works for a second set or the Advan RS-D



or Advan RZ-DF

+1 it would have to be. Not a fan of the overly stretched look. But there are always exceptions.

Stretching tyres like that is just dumb & dangerous. What idiots!
