wheels with a dark finish
Hello. I've been thinking about getting the Melbourne Red exterior--and I like the dark wheels seen on the european models. But I don't want the "deep dish" look. Any ideas for me?

Check out the Volk Time Attacks TE28s and CE37s. They were limited in quantity but you still may be able to drum up a set (or have one painted).

I tried Photoshopping those wheels onto an AW M3 but there is too much red from that carpet reflected onto the rims for it to look any good...Im pretty sure they would look magnificent with AW.
I don't want to put 20s on my M3 but if they are available in the correct size/offset at 19" I think they would be FTW. |

Oops, sorry. I meant the specs of the Breyton wheels. There seem to be different versions for the standard 3 series and for the M3.
Best regards, south |

Is it possible to tell if the "M3" version requires spacers? I'm not a big fan of them

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...01#post1788501 I guess there will be an M3 version of these wheels with the offset being 29mm front and 33mm rear. Best regards, south |
