Again, thanks for the complements. It's funny because this is the complete opposite of what happened when I asked people, in person, which look they preferred. I think out of around 20 people that I asked, only 2 people thought I should change out the DPEs.

Its like asking a woman if she likes clothes, or a child if they like toys, if you ask this forum about BBS wheels the vast majority think they are the best thing ever evented. I think BBS makes a fantastic wheel from a functional and structural standpoint but I dont necessarily feel its the most aesthetically pleasing wheel. That being said, they both look great but I think the former are more aesthetically pleasing....
I'd be interested to know if the people you asked prior were forum members or even M3 owners or just general car enthusiasts. Prepared to get flamed... |

I got these wheels not because they were BBS, but because I really liked the way they looked...especially for SG. I looked at tons of different ones, and these LM-Rs were the ones that stuck out the most. Last edited by slo_guy; 11-05-2012 at 04:06 PM.. |

old rims looked much better but I will never understand 20" wheels on an m3. Everyone loves it now as now it looks like 90% of all M3 with BBS wheels. Now you just need an Akra and you'll be like everyone esle. LOL. Looks good either way!

I'm just not a fan of DPE after hearing a story or two about poor quality wheels or customer service. I know it's not true for every case but I personally wouldn't risk it. I don't like black rims anyway lol. BBS all the way for me.

To be fair, I can vouch for both the quality and customer service. I never had problems with the wheels...and I live and work in LA. I never had a problem with getting updates before getting the wheels. They actually got them to me well before the promise date.
