With spacers, but these aren't the greatest of wheels to go with.
They are very weak and are not in production anymore, so if you break one you're pretty much screwed and could sell the rest as spares

Super Soft Rims SSR these do break and bend. I had a set on E46 M3 maybe 5 years ago bent. A buddies cracked and the spoke cracked down the middle. I will never buy again

Just in case someone doesn't know, with the other models you can order new rims
But I was referring to being screwed with SSR GT3's because they're no longer in production

I had SSR GT3s on my E46 330ci, I loved them...at the time. and they never bent or cracked..so I cant say their quality was shit. BUT I do not think they would look good on an E92...especially if they are 19s IMO.

SSR GT-3 is now back as SSR Werfen GT-03.
SSR has had some restructuring done a couple of years back.

they are definitely back and available to order.
we are an official SSR Dealer. Let us know if you have any questions.

They are custom 3-pc wheels and will take about 10~12 weeks for delivery.

Classic wheel on the E46 M and certainly that one on the Fame video looks amazing.

Here is a picture:

That looks great...much better then I thought (even in white)
but let me ask you, is it exactly the same style as the GT3? Or did they make some minor changes to the wheels (not referring to quality, just the looks)

Whether they made changes to the design or not, I am not sure, actually.
We did not supply/sell SSR before and I only know that these are renamed and resurrected somewhat. (sorry I couldn't answer your question on this )

I've had 19" SSR GT3's on my C230 for about 50k miles and 4 years. They've been nothing but good and have taken some pretty heavy beating (and big potholes). The only things that have needed to be replaced were the valve stems.

I can say that I've never had a problem with them (keeping my fingers crossed).

Now if only they'd bring back the GT-1. My favorite wheel ever. Same style but lighter, stronger and cheaper. No lip though.
