What do you guys think about these rims?
I figured everyone on here would be dead honest so I figured I would ask you guys.
This is the set I am considering. They are not that expensive plus I think they have a "Euro/Tuner meets Luxury feel". They come in at just over $2,100. http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...All&sort=Brand This is my second choice. I told myself that I didnt want to spend over $4,500 for rims, but I think these are sweet. My wife told me just to go for it, but I am not sure. These will run close to 6K total. http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...All&sort=Brand I also want to add the H&R Sport Springs. So take this into consideration. So what do you think? Should I go with the O.Z. rims or the Bremmer Rims?

Chrome rims don't belong on BMWs, just my opinion. The OZ wheels look OK, but they are heavier than OE wheels = performance penalty. And damned expensive to boot.
The Morr custom monoblock forged wheels weigh ~20 lbs for 19", really look good on BMWs, and are less expensive than the OZ.

Can't honestly say I like either of them, but I'd take the O.Z.'s if it was down to these two. Have you given any thought to the O.Z. Superleggera III? They cost and weigh a bit less than the Botticellis, but look much better IMO.

Ditto, have you considered retaining the 264's? They are quite attractive in their particular skeletal way.

I did some sleeping on this last night. I am going to wait until I have the car so I can sit there and look at it for a while. If I put $6K into this car it should be for performance. But I am still considering rims, but I may stay with the 18's for a while.
