thats some hawt wheels, i like that fact that you kept the stock wheels and gave it some chrome instead of buyin new wheels, bmw sure does make some crazy stock wheels, cant see no other company compare!

Nice wheels! Are those factory chrome or you bought another set of rims from BMW and have some other place to chrome them for you? Are the tires still run-flats original from the factory? It's hard to find place who can put the 20's w/ run-flats tires here in NYC of course except the BMW dealers.

Do the Aero Kit first, it'll look nice especially with those chrome rims.

Yes, I bought the exactly the same sets of Wheels, Run Flat Tires & Tire Pressure Monitors from BMW SF.

Here is the Ebay listing of the wheels that I listed on Ebay and it was SOLD in 3 hours. I guess it's a pretty Hot Item right now!

I was thinking about doing the Aero Kit but later I realized since my car is Black and if the Aero Kit is also Black..... Kinda hard to see.
Maybe paint the Aero Kit in Silver to make it stand out more??

No, don't paint it in silver or any other color, there's actually one guy on forum who has post his black E70 with aero kit which looks really nice.
here's the link to that thread.

How much do you pay for to get the rims chromed and where? How long does it takes?

Thanks!
