Aftermarket wheels have different center caps so I don't think it would be a huge deal. But I think it would look best to have matching emblems all around, and the front/rear ones do look good so why not?

Eh...I don't really like the look on the hood, etc but I do sort of like them the wheels. So I was just curious what others might think.

I would get the painted front/rear badges then - they look great (painted by IND)

To each their own. I don't really understand the fascination with 50 years emblems. They are beyond hideous and remind me of Alfa Romeo badges. Standard BMW emblems look solid on everything.

I think if you're going to do it, do all of the emblems.

I say match them all, but, the cars coming from the factory, don't have the steering wheel badge done. BMW doesn't make one. I have them all, except the steering wheel. Are your center caps the same size as the stock wheels?

I would say definitely not. My biggest issue with the 50th anniversary emblems is that they make the BMW logo look too small. I opted for the originals.
