    Do what you want to do. Personally, I think the wheels in the top picture look horrible.

    Yeah, I slowly realized that. I have the same rims as that 5series. I was considering of removing the plasti dip and buying some springs which cost around $300.

    I think it'd look good with either a fresh color plastidip or stock color, but super clean. I honestly wouldn't lower it, the height looks good how it is.

    Also, didn't your car come stock with a bunch of cool bells and whistles like Electronic Damper Control and etc. Do you know if lowering it will mess up the BMW engineering behind those things? Your car is sick as it sits, if you're gonna do a cosmetic mod, just make sure it doesn't mess with the awesome R&D that went into that bimmer.

    I agree with qd. if you like the way it looks lowered with the silver wheels, do it. why would it matter what other people thought of them?

    Who cares how much the springs cost? If I had a Bimmer and didn't lower by way of heating the springs, I'd probably spend as little as I could on other lowering techniques as well.

    Twenty foot wheels? That's super-donk status there, man.
