Doesn't really matter to me if people think I have four 19' hub caps on my car.... I know that I have OEM zcp's. I am not really into buying things to impress people other them my self. I love these wheels and the only wheels I would trade them for is a set of BBS LM Championship editions but currently the money I would drop on those could be better used elsewhere in my car on things like suspension, software and headers. Now if only I could win the mega millions lottery so I could buy everything under the sun for the coupe!

I love and appreciate the comments guys... positive or negitive! Keep'em coming!

Does this car look cheap because it has black wheels

Imo black wheels does not look cheap but makes the car much more aggressive...the only thing i would change is the red time attacks as there are no red accents on the car....

Stock wheels

agreed, black wheels look good. what looks cheap are the guys who go for the flat black look. these are oem csl's and has the nice black glossy look. the red stripe is even a nicer touch.

seeing this coupe's what convinced me to get the cf lip as well. props man. you should come up to the edgewater gtg on thursdays!

Agreed! Even though I'm mostly up in Boston but I make trips down to Central NJ from time to time. And pretty soon I'll hopefully have sold my 3er and the MC will be my primary car.

love your car!!! The wheels look amazing i am thinking about doing those rims in the future. How do you like you exhaust? Also, i read that you have an AFE CAI have you used it with rpi scoops?

dvpouldar26 · 10-16-2008, 12:23 AM

Very nice. I would just get tints, black mirrors, clear front turn signal bulbs, black roundels, black m// badges, and paint the center part of the front bumper black.

Yea I know I need tints bad and they are on the way and someday i'll get around to replacing the bulbs in the turn signals. Black roundels and black ///m badges will NEVER happen! I respect the colors of M and BMW just like the American flag.... tons of history behind those colors to change them. I was going to get some carbon mirrors but Hartge is the only one that makes them and they are $1000 for something that doesn't add any performance! I wish someone would make them cheaper. Then I would paint the mirror bases white and put on the carbon mirrors. I think a black center section would take away from the clean look and make it look to over done.
