Atsnow · 04-05-2011, 07:53 AM

So today I'm installing these wheels , Staggered 18 Style 5s (BBS RC90)

on this car Monaco blue E92

The question I have is should I keep the BMW centers or should I go with the BBS centers (Silver on Black)
like these

15 votes 8 to 7 in favor of the roundels ,
I'm still at the same point

Funny thing I started the same thread in BF.com and 15votes 11 to 4 BBS

Tallest · 04-05-2011, 03:54 PM

voted for OEM. They tie this together. The looks is great. The Type 5 are rare. Surprised you found a set with correct offset! What are the specs exactly?

bpsu07 · 04-05-2011, 03:59 PM

Style 5 in staggered 18's are rare*****

I see you mounted them, I sold my set (17's) Wish I had your 18's though. Oh well, that e90 you had on the other thread looked so good with style 5's lol.

Matrez · 04-05-2011, 04:12 PM

Its very rare to se such wheels on newer Beemers

Looks very nice
