Wheel Recommendations for '13 528i XDrive

Took ownership of a gently used 2013 528i XDrive, and it has the standard 17 inch wheels with all-season run flats.

I'm looking to upgrade the wheels / tires but many of the tires I've come across are a bit garish for my tastes -- hoping to find something that looks elegant, and different enough to distinguish my 5-series from the 100 other 5's in the neighborhood.


Any recommendations are greatly welcome!

There are tons of options, some 'garish' as you say and others more subtle. It really boils down to what look you're going for and your wheel/tire budget. First off, do you like a 5 star, multi-spoke style, split 5 star, euro-mesh look, etc. If your wheel only budget is around $800-$1k, check out Niche, Verde, STR. If your budget is $1400, there's Vertini or VMR. If you're at $1600+, there's Forgestar, Avant Garde or Vossen. Over $2k, you're looking at higher end rotary forged wheels. My wife has a '12 528 that came with the dorky 17's. I immediately swapped them for a set of staggered 20's, style 437 replicas. I wanted something more aggressive but since it's her daily driver, she wanted it to look more like an OE M package.
