        I agree that M pars make a difference. They did on my E34 540i..

                That E34 is SEX.

                AJ, STFU. SOME cars (read: SOME) cars can pull it off. No, your E28 couldn't pull it off. My E30 probably couldn't either. Could a super clean E34 pull off some chrome M-Pars? FUCK YES!

                  Chrome wheels on a muscle car? Sure.
                  Hot rod? Sure.
                  BMW? No frigging way.

                    Stock wheels never stay for very long of cars I own, so it doesn't make or break a car for me.

                    Folling an "OEM Plus" philosophy, I've always liked the throwing stars on E31s

                      I think wheels make or break a car. OE, not so much because they're not exactly the owners choice especially on a few year old car. Luckily, they can be changed very easily!

                            those RS's could just as well be polished.

                            When I hear "chrome wheels" something along these lines pop into my head:



                            It's more of the wheels that you can only find in chrome, not an optional finish.
