Plasti Dipped my new wheels!



Picked up a set of used SSR Comps (staggered), whats everyone think? yes or no with the bronze/gold?

Also which wheels should be my dedicated track wheels and which wheels dedicated street? The SSR's are lighter than the VOLKS and the entire set cost less than 1 of the TE37's. Im about to purchased tires and im not sure which set of wheels should get the track tires and which set daily tires.

TE37 (squared)

Great wheels. Ive been on the fence about going with some bronze wheels on my bsm as well, I think it looks pretty good actually. If I go ahead with it Im thinking a much darker bronze though.
If it were me, id track with the lighter ssr comps.

I had SSR comp in the past and if I were you, I would sell them and get Apex for the track or use the Volk for track use. I bent 2 wheels out of 5, they are not the strongest wheels... Check on Bimmerforum or M3forum.net and you will find a lot of broken SSR comp or Type C.

What about for DD? SSR can't be that easy to bend, i've seen many people run them.

They will be perfect for DD as long as you avoid potholes
