OEM style 190 on crimson
just got my new OEM style 190 rims put on. was kind of bummed that they are the cast and not the forged versions but they look great nonetheless and I got a decent deal on all four with tires and tpms. here are a couple iPhone pics before I give her a wash this weekend and take some more. the black between the spokes really good with the shadowline trim and tint.

yes, i am in love with the 190's. wanted them so badly but i had trouble getting a pair of them used so finally just gave up the ghost. anyway, they'd be greatly enhanced with some spacers in the rear since they're OEM and the offset is pretty conservative.
 looks tight though! |

yea I thought about spacers- but until the car gets dropped I think they are better as they are because I think that aggressive offsets on cars that arent dropped look kind of strage/bad

1. Wheels looking great. I love Crimson Red. Mine is a E90 though and I've been wanting those wheels as well
2. I am VERY VERY envious of the roof terracotta tiles on your house! This is how proper roofing is done. I am from Europe btw, so its rare thing to see roofs like that in USA 3. Get a better camera. Those pictures do not do justice on your car! Vasil |

haha I know the camera is the iphone- jsut a couple quick shots. the roof actually isnt that great. its "lightweight" S tiles so that the roof - designed originally for shake/shingle- real not asphalt crap, can take the weight of the tiles. maybe your noticing the extra piece of tile cemented under the edge of the pieces- that's required per the city's "art jury" which is an independent board that governs your house on the outside- sort of like CCAs in planned communities- except here there cannot be tract homes or similar designs. but anyway- there are far, far nicer roofs in my city but I can see how you'd formulate a negative view of american building techniques and aesthetics so thanks for the props!

more pics
cleaned her up and here are some more pics. sorry for size in advance. I'm thinking she needs some carbon fiber mirror caps... also wondering if I should leave the BMW performance black grill surrounds but then put the chrome slats back in to kind of match the wheel scheme- though those are polished and not chrome
