For full features; Go to Black BMW with Black rims
Does anyone know where I can find pictures of BMW's with black rims or
hyper black rims. There's a set of 20's that I want to get for my 2004
black 325i but I can decide between black w/chrome lip or hyper black and I
can't find any pictures anywhere? Help :banghead:

Black on Black is a very nice look, Go to tirerack.com, they have an image
emulator to give you an idea of what you're car will look like with th rims
on it.
By the way, Join As much as I like that forum...no advertising. Send by PM
if you must.

20 inch wheels will look hideous on a 325i. If you want to sport 20's, you
need a much bigger car like a 6 series or 7 series, or an SUV.
We had a Bentley Continential GT in the shop with tasteful 22 inch wheels.
Looked friggin sweet.

What would be a good size? It seems like all of the wheels I find I like
only start out in 20's. Afriend of mine has 19" and they only look hideous
because his BMW is that charcoal gray color and the rims are black.

if i had a 04 325i i would have 18 inch wheels on it. that size just seems
right to me for that car.. maybe 19 but i would never put 20's or above on
it. what purpose would it serve to have oversized rims on a car that was
designed for a much lower size? besides taking it to a car show and looking
ghetto.
just 18's and lower the ride height a bit. :laughing:

Good point. I'm just a dumb girl and according to all the sales people the
bigger the better.. There probably just trying to take me for more money.

Yeah, they are.

Sorry Bav, just trying to give her a better outlet for BMW questions, as
this is more of a general forum.
Ill send a PM next time.

I can't believe THAT was considered advertising. Should've removed the
tirerack.com mention as they might make money off of her. And might as well
not say the name of the car manufacturer, as that's promoting a commercial
outfit.
It's one thing to register here JUST to tell people about YOUR
forum/commercial website, or one you're on. But when a long time member
mentions a marque specific forum as a legitimate response to a legitimate
question about getting information, it's absolutely absurd to construe it
as advertising.

not too long ago, my uncle put 19's on his 328, it looks sweeeeet, there
lk blackish greyish privat's. and the bmw is red, but yea he went with the
19's and it looked very nice

325i's are slow enough. Here comes extralong gearing, super-unpsrung
weight, and rubbing on everything. I don't wish 20's on any vehicle with
less than 300 lb. ft. of torque or a new final drive ratio.
