I concur. The shiny finish looks a tad LA Pimp to me

Gunmetal to black seems more fitting to the M3's character - just my opinion, each to their own

Would match your "pimp" red interior quite well, though.

Best regards, south

I would love to see those gunmetal finished Breytons on an AW M3.

It def will look good at a car show.

Thanks to the time spent by members researching on this forum we know that these particular wheels are not a good match to the stock 19x8.5 et29 and 19x9.5 et23. In other words, you are sacrificing performance w/ this set up.

...any weight info on these 20's?

These photos are great, helping form each of our individual ideas of where we want to take our cars...

My interest is piqued by this photo of the Jerez ala "turbo P-car" rims...

Does anyone know the nomenclature of the rims in the second pic? The blacked out 5 spoke. I see the Hamann logo on them but I cannot find that rim.

Thanks.

i can't find info either, but it looks very Alpina-ish to me. just from the pic it looks like you'd never want these on your car for daily use, it looks like the offsets are totally incompatible and there is a huge spacer in there.

I'm sure it's a Hamann Pre-Production Wheel.
