NOT ORANGE! Step too far I think!!

Black would be ok, but not sure if that would suit your car. I vote leave them alone.

Can you photoshop them under the car? Then it would be easier to make a choice.

i personally don't think they'll suit the car. i think the wheels on there now look better, but hey, it's your car mate. if i were to fit them, i'd leave them as they are.

at the end of the day, it's an E21 which is getting some attention and love...more than enough to keep me happy. all the better it's a daily driver 8)

I think they could work, though probably better on a darker coloured car. If you do fit them I'd recommend keeping the wheels as they are.

As someone suggested try to photoshop them before you do fit them.
