Do they make them in 9j wide?
na the widest they come is 7.5 j but they look ok might get some spacers to bring them out a bit more on the back.

They look really nice, but the smallest tyre size you can go on that width is 225/40/16 :cool:

That side pic looks :drool:

Have you thought about colour coding your door handles? Think it'll clean up the side view a bit. And also the black part of the side repeater (seen it done somewhere, and looks really smart).

They look the nuts :cool: personally I would have gone with 205-215/40's all round...

The rims themselves will look even better once you've got the bmw badges on there, providing your getting them...otherwise they still look sweet 8) 8)
