Well finally got around to taking some photographs. I've done a few mods to date:
-Custom Forgiato wheels
-Painted calipers
-BMW Vinyl decal on front and rear calipers
-LED lighting under doors and trunk

Mods yet to be done:
-HID Angel eyes
-Switch to winter wheels with X6M Replica wheel and Michelin Latitude Alpin winter tires

Enjoy!

Agree, I think the original M wheels would be much nicer here.

Wheels are too small for that style (lip with rivets holding the centre)

The SAV is not ruined guys. LOL!!! It's just wheels. They can be replaced (not like he cut anything or flanged the arches).

Besides, choosing the right wheels is the HARDEST thing to do because there is just too many wheels to decide from, and unless someone can put wheels on and off just to see what they look like on the vehicle ... its still a bit of "hit or miss".

I saw some wheels for my car that i loved, but then saw them in real life and hated them (2011 Asantis BTW). So, u can never really tell...
