I didn't actually do it, I just photoshopped one for my avatar... If BMW bottletops were smooth (if they had a centrecap to hide the hub and bolt holes, for example) then it would look very cool. That or a set of Heineken/Becks decals on them.

There's a kid running round in a Saxo with all 4 wheels different colours near me - we're talking hot pink, neon green, luminous yellow etc..
The car looks kinda cool as he obv doesn't give a flying f*** what anyone thinks, and it's covered in stickers and stuff too.

The colour bottle tops only look good in the Photoshop with the e30 on the deck, if it isn't that low you won't pull it off.
I'd go with nogaro grey, they will look good without the car being decked.

i painted the wheels on my mrs golf red, and the centres on a set of style 5s i had on both e30 m3 and e36 compact. i used bmw zinnobar red as it's a proper deep red red, not too orangy, not too pinky

cheers,
harry
