The look almost comically large on that car. Maybe it's because the finish is so much brighter than the car itself. Maybe if they were gunmetal or something.

That's easy to fix, because BMW brakes put out more dust than any mainstream car I've owned. Hit the brakes once, and those wheels will be gunmetal in color.

This car needed a big lip in the rear. That's what made the older Z3M's so famous in my books.

I agree. I hate the brake dust that comes out of the BMW. I had to wash my friend's BMW 330i before it got sold and he had the OEM sport wheel (mesh-type) and it was a PITA!


That Bmw Z4 with the antenna looks like a radio control car

Very nice choice! Keep up clean this sexy BBS CH wheels. My choice is an OZ Racing Superlegga III black with 19" wheels.

I love BBS wheels, but this car just doesn't look right.
