          Where to buy chrome lugnuts?

          Any idea where I can buy a set of chrome lugnuts with a set of locking ones for my M5? I want to try to see how they look with the stock wheels.

          Good question!

          I look forward to hearing the answers . . .

          I was on the Net for a few hours last night looking for some wheel related items . . . and didn't come across any, but it would be a nice option.

          BMW sells them, although I don't know if they have them for the M5 (the length is the key). If this doesn't work, try asking one of the better aftermarket wheel suppliers - they typically provide the bolts with custom wheel orders

          Tire Rack and BMP have silver ones but not chrome.

          I think I'd go for silver ones instead of chrome.... thanks for the tips! I'll be sure to try those sources out! Any idea what lengths/types I'd need to get for the M5?

          I think the stock length wheel bolts are either 24 or 25mm. (They don't actually make them that close in size; I just can't remember if it's 24 or 25.) If you run rear OEM wheels in front with 3mm spacers you'll need to use 27-28mm bolts.
