Default OT: Wheel recommendations for a mid 40's executive w/ a new black 330XI??? Pics appreciated.

Okay boys, AWoT wasn't much help, but I know I can count on you..

Obviously these aren't for me, they are for my cousin.

Anyone have any pics of different wheel options on a bimmer so I can show him?

I'm thinking something from either BBS, HRE or Hamman maybe? I dunno... what looks good on bimmers?

Default a guy in my neighborhood just got 18" Oettinger RE's for his 330ci. Hotness

They're not too flashy, but still have a classy performance look to them. They're quite the conservative wheel, IMO. Sorry, I don't have pix, but I know the FAQ has pix of them on a B5.

Default Oh I'm very familiar with the Oetty RE's... didn't know they came in BMW bolt pattern though.

You sure they weren't the Hamman's? They have a wheel that looks almost exactly like the Oetty.

Oettinger is a VW/Audi brand. Hamann HM2's look a lot like the RE though.

That could be it then. I thought his centercaps looked a little funny.
