Looking good man. I never used to think your car was dirty when you used to say that you would take more pics when you washed the car. Looking at this set of pics, I see your car actually was dirty, haha

Def like the height you got the coils set at also.

I like, very nice. Darker tint/color to the wheels would really push it over the top with your dark car color...IMOP.

I bought a few sets while i was completing this project. Did u see the other m6 set i did? Search m6xima and m5xima.

The extra m5 set I had in silver is sold..but if anyone wants the gunmetal i can make it happen but i need two buyers at 950 shipped each set, which includes the 5x114.3 bolt pattern conversion.

This set up requirres a coilover drop , u will need the natural camber from the drop to clear the fenders and will also require a rear fender roll or shave.

I been out of town and missed a lot of postings.

actually this fitment would need coilovers. the lower you go, the more clearance you get.

gunmetal would be nice, but I don't have a pic.

replicas. U can't get the real bmw wheels in 20" diameter or for 950 a set.

they usually cost 950 for EACH wheel.

Those wheels look really good on your car.

I don't know if I got it right. This is NOT a direct fit on the 7thgen? Or say on the 6thgen too? I admire the wheels and might be think about getting me some, if my money is right.

Will this fit the 6thgen too? Like in my case with totally stock suspension and I never plan on lowering or anything. Will it fit on my car?

I wonder if those wheels would look great with these center caps... What do you guys think? I was thinking of putting these center caps on my 7thgen wheels. But don't know if it would be good or not. But it might look great on these bmw replica wheels.

Honestly i dont think a badge from another car should ever be used. Im sure you can find or make black nissan center caps but IMO gtr center caps only belong on a gtr

yeah they are all replicas.

all replicas are made in china, hence the lower price! but they are good quality, I have had no problems with these at all.

and yeah don't let the center caps be the center of your concerns. it's really about how perfect they will fit! We are lucky to get good fitment for a great price!

Talking

wow no vision for the m3 style wheels on the a35 ? well then it look like I'll have to do it MYSELF! hehehehehehehe

It will be as easy as just swapping out the wheels, It may very well be the best yet. Here's a little trailer of what is yet to come on the a35!
