New Wheels for the 535i

5/31
UPDATE! Changed my wheels again. Switch over to the black Axis V99's. Same wheels specs as the Rotiforms. I'm took the Rotiform wheels off to powder coat them a different color so I'll be wearing these out for the time being.



Finally had a chance to mount my Rotiform IND-T wheels on some Toyo tires yesterday. It definitely needs to be slightly lowered now IMO. I think it would look way better. I'm on the fence about the look at the moment. We'll see how it plays out over the next few weeks if I stick with them.

Not the best pictures. My car is dirty and there was no skill used it taking the photos either.

20x9 et 35 with 245/35
20x10.5 et 35 with 275/35

I like em! they look unique.....

I think once you lower the car you will feel different too

I like the meaty look on the rear wheels, as you are running 35 series vs 30...

the wheel color goes nicely with the white...

i think if you wrap the door handle trim and other chrome bits in black (or carbon if your splitter and spoiler are carbon) and replace those amber reflectors with body colored ones it will look super clean/subtle and classy...

Definitely unique and clean! I bet cleaning those wheels would be a PITA. once you lower it the car is definitely gonna look completely different. I'd color match the front reflectors

Cool you got new wheels.

I don't like them. The first impression i got when i saw was - large Mercedes C class wheels.

Anything that makes a BMW look like a Mercedes is awful to me.
