First time seeing white stock wheels on the 5 series. Actually looks pretty good. Where in Ireland? Houses look like your in Dublin, possibly blanchardstown?

the white both on the rims and the car seem different, that is why I don't like white on white color.

I agree, It seems the white is a couple shades off from the AW color of the car. I think if the color matched perfect ans then a drop it would look better.

My opinion, as long as you like it who cares what we think

JCat27 - i agree - several shades off. Plus - I wonder what the brake dust will look like on any shade of white.

I normally wouldn't say that I'm a fan, but that actually doesn't look half bad. Some H&R springs would finish it off.

Gutsy move! I agree the shade is off a bit. How does it look once the wheels get a few hundred miles of brake dust on them?
