Pretty aggressive here! But it worked out. Spot on fitment with absolutely no poke.
I have two sets of these brand new in the box ready for 5x114.3 application, so if anyone is interested hit me up!

Yeah they also come in gunmetal, but the very reason I sold my last m6 set was because they were gunmetal.
The old school side of me prefers the bright classic silver look.
Gunmetal is nice, dont get me wrong. But at night, the darker shade makes it look darker. And with gunmetal, they never look clean even after u clean it. This is just how i felt when i had the gunmetal.
But gunmetal does look more sporty, modern and aggressive and definitely the color of choice these days.

I like the classic silver look of wheels, but I also like the gunmetal look as well. It is situational though. Like BBmaxi said, sometimes when I look at them it just doesn't look clean to me, but other times it sets the car and accents off just right (a la Ghozt). Now I do like the ones I have seen that have a polished lip with the gunmetal kind of like these:

I am not partial to either one, but if I see one that I like I would consider either color.

That tsw is nice, but the lip design makes it appear smaller. This is just from my observation.
The max needs all the help it can get to make the wheel look BIG in 20". there are a few pics from users that have 20 and look small.
Full face, concave does seem like the trend these days.

Yea, that is the only thing with wheels with lips, is that it tends to make the wheel look smaller than what it actually is.
Concave is def the hot thing right now. The first wheel I really wanted were the Vossen VVS-CV1s

That looks real sick , I love the way it looks with those rims on it BB. Does the wheel stick out from the fender or is it flush with the body? I have an 11 max sport and I was looking for another wheel because like you I'm a little old school and I like the bright silver finish better then the dark look. Love my car just feels
Ike the wheels are still dirty when I keep it real clean. I'm really interested in getting a set of those could you let me know how. Thanks alot.

they are 2.75" caps, the oem caps are too small but these will fit:

or you can slap on some nismo emblems like these onto the caps themselves. the center cap on these m5 wheels have a very slight curvature so you need to get a emblem that has a slight curve as stated on these emblems below.
