From EC-7 to ARC-8 UPDATE
Just a quick iPhone picture of the change. To me the Interlagos blue screames black wheels. I'm very happy with the switch.
Better pictures this weekend.

Interesting switch, I went from ARC-8s in Hyper black to EC-7s in satin black.
Any reason why you didn't just go to EC-7 again but in black ?

I had ARC-8 on my E30 M3 and when I bought the M Coupe i didn't want the same wheel again. After two years with a set of EC-7 wheels I realize I really prefer to ACR-8 with its thinner spokes and more open pattern.

Both are nice wheels. But I prefer the PS7 xD but I still have not seem a group buy on the 18" for more than a year ago. Waiting for that. Grants on your new wheels tough. Look good on your Interlagos. Better pics when you get a chance xD

Thanks. Offsets and tire sizes looked perfect Still can't decide if I want ARC-8 or EC-7, even after seeing both on your car...choices, choices, choices
