SSII E92 M3 on Satin Black M359 wheels
First, my disclaimer: the wheels are ZCP/359M reps made by Avant Garde (M359), not OEM ZCP wheels. I am still very impressed with the quality and feel its a great value.
Wheel specs; F: 19x9 ET-18 and R: 9x10 ET-25. Tires: Hankook V12 Evos, specs; F: 245/35/19, R: 275/30/19. I wanted to post these pictures because it was relatively difficult to find many pictures of Silverstone/SSII with black wheels, specifically the ZCP style (although there is a recent post by xsilvor that are amazing, found here:http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=647603). If anything, comparing the two threads really shows how SSII changes shade, mine were taken during an overcast day. I definitely understand that some people won't like SSII on black wheels (as I was a bit skeptical myself) but overall I think it really makes such a beautiful color achieve a much more aggressive look. I will definitely keep my 220s for when I want a change... [I do know it needs a slight drop]

Yeah, they definitely do. In person they look more matte, but they do give off a slight shine in a lot of angles... especially right after they are washed like in these pictures
OSS angel eyes actually! Then it will be suspension. I daily drive the car now, but won't be shortly. Once that happens I won't be as concerned about dropping it. I do need to do more research with springs and EDC, but I do plan to track it so I don't know if I should invest in a BBK over the suspension mods...

Wow! I may put these on my MW E93. What size tires did you get? Any rubbing?

2 more questions: how did you get the BMW center caps on there? And any idea on the weight difference, if any, between these and the stock non-ZCP wheels?

I got exactly the same wheels for my winter setup. They are indeed great finish and quality.
Nice car!
