It's his opinion he is just looking for the perfect wheel. I am on that same path. He's probably posting them to see how many of you have them. Being origanal it's what it's all about.

Out of all four wheels you posted the Concept 7 is the hottest on the MAX.

Non original wheels either cost a fortune and/or look like crap. Some of the most expensive wheels i have seen are the ugliest. I'm just getting ideas. I think I know what I will get. Post up some other options?

Me? I just started looking about 14 days ago a little less even? Is spending approx 2 weeks looking for wheels I plan on spending $2000+ on too long? I'm in no rush since there is 5 ft of snow on the ground.

Btw I already have the tires 235/40/18
I got a great deal on them. Just gotta find the right rim.

Do you have any other suggestions for the rims to answer the question within the thread?

Thanks!

My bad, but it seems like you've been shopping for wheels for the longest time. What do you think of the SSR GT3's? I may get those for my M3 in 19's.

Yes non original wheels that look good do cost. But to me thats better than a poop wheel or a wheel that has been done. But if you search you can find some nice ones that havn't been done alot.

Do a search on me, i poseted a bunch of new wheels not to long ago that arn't real ugly different styles, and wheels that are new and not played out that should look pretty good on the max, and don't cost a whole lot.

I'm not a fan of those style of wheels. They are ok though. I dunno about putting 19's on a M3. Maybe on a e46 but not on the old style. What year and color is your M3?

Dronell is a nice wheel but they are having some serious cash flow probs. Ive been told by akt and other wholesalers that they are going out of business. Dont think id want a wheel that i couldnt replace if i damaged it by accident.
