LM's on the other hand

I dont know what it is, but the car in the original post does not look that great. Something is off. Maybe to thick of a sidewall?? I dunno, but I rather stock.

THe post above me though...VERY NICE!!

The stepped lip of the LM and LM-R always make the wheels look small.
A 20" package would look better in either of these wheel styles.

Maybe it's the fitment... overall, this look does nothing for me.

It's partly because the M3 is so darned subtle looking and there is a
3-series on every corner here. Honestly, seeing a 3-series in so cal
is like seeing a white Chevy Malibu in Detroit.

So common they're almost invisible.

Kind of a yawn...

All that money spent toward weak offsets and 4x4 ride height. What a shame.

Ahh, I think thats what it is!!

And yea, I saw an M3 over the weekend and didnt even know I was looking at an M3 until I heard how quick the transmission was shifting. Just thought it was a regular 3-series.

The black M3 with the LM-Rs had WEAK offsets. The Amuse M3 on the other hand....:drooooool:



The 360 forged one is hot too.
