1996 740il Wheels

Hey there,

I just bought a 96 740il and am very happy with it. However the passenger side front wheel was obviously dinged with a kerb or two.

The dealer is taking care of this and I am thinking of chroming out the wheels while he's at it. It has the standard 740 alloy mesh rims, the car is a pristine black on black with 60k and the body and paint are perfect.

I think it would work but would like any thoughts.
Thanks!

I would go aftermarket wheels. I don't like those stock wheels at all, but that's just my opinion. There is so many choices out there, you are bound to find one that you like. And they don't have to be "bling Bling" 20's either.

Here are some that I think would look pretty sweet on your ride:

Thanks,

Actually thought about it then forgot while getting everything else checked out. I'll check into the aftermarkets and may go that route.
PS: Lived in East Wenatchee for a couple of years by the way.
