As a E46 M3 owner I must say in these photos it is really showing its age.. I dont even drive mine anymore....lol

The Z4 looks so more modern/updated to me in these photos.. Either way these look sweet.

I don't think the E46 could ever look dated. It just looks good.

I like the white on white, but for some reason, I don't like the silver on blue.

That M3 is fabulous!
LSB has long been one of my favourite colours.

W/W-wheels

The white wheels look amazing on a white car.
Knocks it up a notch on the $$$ scale on looks alone.
Best B/W combination I've seen

Very true, and don't even get me started on the E30, that's sooo old hat.

Everything is better than black rims. I like the sliver ones.
I think both sliver and the white one would suite my coupe

As the former owner of the white wheels I can answer the upkeep question... it's a bitch!

A couple of days are enough turn them grey. I used to wash the barrels at each of my weekly car wash. It's definitely more work than silver/black wheels but it is certainly worth it. I think Cmark8's car looks fantastic with them

Good shit! Too bad I'm not down in SD, otherwise I'd throw my matte blacks in there as well for the TE37 battle

AW represent! Hahaha! I must admit that the mercury silver TE37 is jaw-dropping in person... and the LSB M3 is mad crazy.

Answering another question above, I have to wipe my wheels down every four days or so. Not hard at all though as it cleans off easily. I really wish I could stay in the US for one more year...

You should stay longer you bastard

BTW, you should get that wheel cleaner I told you about.
Spray on the faces, in the barrels. Hose down. No wiping needed other than to dry them.

That does suck you have to head back. I will be down in San Diego for a month next Summer too depending on where I want to move.

I clean my magnesium blue volks every other day and wax them.
