I think the Volk LE28N would be interesting looking on a M3. And as far as the "german" wheels I like BBS RG-R's, a big set of 19's would look awesome. I always thought if I ever got an M3 I would never change wheels because I like the stockers so much already.

Race bling: BBS LMs
Street bling: SSR GT3s
Weird bling: TE-37s
Blang blang: HRE 8-series

All OEM stock wheels suck compared to what you can get in the aftermarket.

Interesting take. You seem a little harsh on OEM rims.

I don't know. I don't see the 37's on a German car. IMO it doesn't look right. I'm think the HRE's would look amazing, and it would class up that car a lot. A darker wheel with a polished lip would look very nice with your base color. Good luck and she looks very nice on those PSS9's. I must say, those PSS9's are some serious coils. BTW, what setting do you have them on?

BBS LM's or HRE 540R's... that's what I've narrowed it down to for mine. Both are stunning. The BBS RG-R's and Maya STM's are also excellent choices IMO. Good luck on your decision. IMO Volk Wheels do not look like they belong on an M3.

What's wrong with the stock 19's they look pretty sweet to me.

I do like BBS on BMW's though....

How about the BBS CH's?
My friend put those on his customer's e46 M3 a while back, and they look sick! (and not too expensive either)

Here's my opinion...


Volks do NOT belong on an m3....just look wrong.

Now question is do you want dish, or not....

If not,

No doubt BBS CH, RGR, or LM (the sad little thing on LM's is not a lip)

If you do want a lip, which makes the car super hot,

In order of beauty....

1 Work Rezak II
2 Hre 54X series....
3.Kinesis k28,29
4 HRE 8 series
These rims are MEGA money, but you will see about 50% at least back if you sell them later.....
