The old school m-parallel look good, not a fan of the second one in your first post. M6 reps are kind hyped up and besides i think only look good on coupes. I love the Style 230 wheels. Also the Style 172 E60 5 Series M-Sport wheels look hot on a 3. ![https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1036991/2ylsq4z.jpg](https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1036991/2ylsq4z.jpg) ---

Jeller’s SF’s are great looking wheels. 740 M-parallel’s are timeless. Honestly one of the best OEM wheels ever made. 313’s look nice but 19" tires are expensive and the selection to me isn’t impressive. I personally want the best tires available in the best sizes. That’s why I like 17’s. I’m more of a performance guy that aesthetic guy.
