    Jim, I must say that having hubcaps makes your car look like a clean 318i.

          The euro grilles dont break apart at the top of the headlight. IT just goes stright across.

          WHY IS THAT? Why are the US grilles different? Whats the reason

            I think I'm going to put my bottle caps back on sometime this winter. They just need new paint. (I'll probably paint them mid-night black metallic) I think the hubcaps are ugly..and in no way as good looking as my OZ's. Putting the newly painted bottlecaps on this winter may make me like the change asn I get bored of things in terms of the look of my car. It's a good thing I HAVE snow tires already mounted on the bottlecaps..2 sets of snows is good :pimp: (yoko snows & pirelli snows)
            I Just cannot wait until I can buy new summer rims I think that's is very important. 4 years is enough with the OZ's. When you make a $1260 mistake on just rims with no tires you really feel like a dumb ass.

              I'll say.

              Screw the bottle caps even. Keep these.

                I'm kind of just saying that..because up intill I became a member on E3s, I leaned that everyone hated my wheels.. I used to love them.. Now I Just like them. After all I did buy the wheels 4 years ago when I was 18.. So it's not a terrible mistake.

                U guys got me thinking: So...
                What do u guys think about 17 " BBS RGR on my car?
                other choices considered:
                Alpina 16x7 and 16x8 combo
                Compmotive 17" CXN
                BBS RX
                Killer HRE made to order wheels

                    Dude if you got BBS RGR's I would absolutely kill you for them. I want those wheels so bad. If they came in 16" and were cheaper by a little bit, I would be saving for them right now. But all the wheels you listed are extremely hot.

                    And as for getting euro bumpers to compliment the euro grilles, I think after getting brand new U.S. bumper trim (right?) he should keep them. And I do like the hubcaps.

                    And any chance you can sell those O.Z wheels?

                      HRE wheels will probably be better than compmotive wheels
                      As for the BBS RGR (they are forged too) I don't know of that silver finish they have (it's kinda different) will go good with cirrus blue. Still the RGR's are on my top consideration amoung wheel choices.

                      I probably can sell my OZ's and get some cash....but I don't think I'll do it, cos they will make good spare wheels to have lying around. The local northeast Pa bmw cca member actually like me wheels..same with my college friends.

                      As for this may: I'll order the wheels (most likley the 17" BBS RGR, 17" HRE alpina spoked look wheels, or the Aplina 16" s)
                      I can't wait :!:

                      oh, and yes I think the hubcaps look pretty good in the winter + I got the extra weight of steel wheels for snow traction

                          But you have those ultra heavy steelies for spare rims man. Sell those OZs.

                            BBS RX's come in 16 inch and are the same style. They arent forged and are a bright silver finish.
