550i

BoostedE90 · 12-06-2010, 11:12 AM

Was at the stealership today turing my car in to get CPO'ed and they had this new 550i sitting out front. Sorry for the crappy BlackBerry pictures, but the car looks amazing. The wheels they have on it are sick! The pictures definitely don't do it justice.

To show how deep the lip on the wheel is. Only thing I had in my pocket were my keys.

+1 nice ride

E90PAT · 12-06-2010, 01:01 PM

gahhh!! keys and chrome.. if i saw that done to my car, id personally shove those keys down your ears.

alexc93 · 12-06-2010, 01:03 PM

i would be infuriated if you threw your keys on my wheel...that was a little dumb dumb of you.

tony20009 · 12-06-2010, 01:29 PM

Though I'm sure you were careful placing the keys there, a dollar bill (or $100 bill if you got it that way...LOL) or business card may have been a better choice as they'd be less likely to scratch the finish.

The 550i is handsome. I've seen other wheels I like better, but that's just me...I wouldn't not buy the car because of the wheels.

dxb335d · 12-06-2010, 01:36 PM

Ain't keen on the wheels!!

Is this the twin turbo V8?

P4335i · 12-06-2010, 02:57 PM

Front end looks so...Volvo

marlie · 12-06-2010, 03:18 PM

Nice car, but not diggin the wheels dude

MassBimmer · 12-06-2010, 03:19 PM

Wow, I'd kill you if that was my car...ever heard of a wallet??

Either way, sick looking car

michaelthepsycho · 12-07-2010, 10:13 AM

Chrome, rivets, and a boring color... Yuck. The new 5 is very handsome in person though, after seeing a few on the road.

remmib · 12-07-2010, 07:22 PM

Are those wheels HRE 994R??

I'd never but BMW center caps on some HRE wheels.

AlterZgo · 12-08-2010, 09:58 PM

Those wheels are hideous.

mlai · 12-08-2010, 10:09 PM

BMW 356 wheels are better!

XLR8_24/7 · 12-09-2010, 09:16 PM

The wheels look horrible. Should have left stock wheels and tires on the car. To each his own.

vladberca · 01-13-2011, 12:39 PM

The car looks very good! Congrats for your purchase!

JOHNBMWM5 · 01-14-2011, 12:11 PM

Nice wheels, get the M Sport to go with them and you've got a car.

MDyDinanM · 01-14-2011, 04:27 PM

not a fan of the rims, at all...

SchlauCow · 01-15-2011, 12:58 AM
