I like the fitment, but the style of wheels is not my cup of tea. But... I've never seen another M3 with your wheels before, so you got that.

its not the pictures. the wheels just don't fit the lines of the car. they don't fit the attitude of the car, nor the car's personality. these wheels are just too busy in my opinion.
these wheels are better suited for a stanced vw or maybe an integra.
the way the car actually sits isn't terrible.

I don't understand why anyone would ruin one of the fortes of the car: the way it handles. Heck, it's one of the main factors for which M cars are known!

That aside, to each his own!

That's because people are generally polite in person to avoid confrontation. On the internet, you'll find how people really feel.

I don't like the style of wheels...does not go with car at all. Kudos for trying something different but it just doesn't sit with the car well...and yes, I hate the wheels but whatever....its not my car!

Too low for my liking and I agree I'm not a fan of the wheels, but you didn't get the wheels for us! As long as you like them. And at least all of your rims are showing. I hate it when it's so low that the fender is covering the rim.

I agree with most in here, the wheels just don't flow well.

I would actually prefer a set of HRE 501's, which are similar in style, but flow a bit better...

Maybe consider a non-polish version of your wheels

Nope, they wouldn't do on DC2.

OP, doesn't look "stanced" out to me. Stanced:


Not stanced:


The drop is fine.

every time i see things lke these it makes me scratch my head.

While i am all for modding cars and whatever, a car was meant to be driven. I just find it ridiculous that people are so interested in blinging out their cars to the point that drivability of the car becomes 3rd of even 4th priority in their approach
