Chris I've got a set of wheels I've decided to do a
color change on. Gold is what I decided since my
previous car (E36 BMW sedan) had 02 M3 wheels
done up in gold. Looked ridiculously sick.
Great minds think alike....I say good for the gold.

Gold looks so sick.

Aesthetically I prefer rims with more surface on the w124 - especially when width is staggered. The BBS are definitely classy, just not in gold on a black w124 (my opinion only & each to thier own).

regarding real or replica - why would you spend $2500 when you could spend $800 for exactly the same look? "Look" is the only thing that applies on the street...

these are a little shinier than i would have liked, but i love how they bring an 80's old school benz feel to the car....
