Smile BMW E46 wheel change!

got some m3 style wheels for my E46 328i and after around 2 months the lacquer started coming off them due to them having a polished surface, took them back to the suppliers and got these CSL style ones.

i really liked the m3 style wheel and wasn't sure about what to put on but these are starting to grow on me.....

what do you lot think???

old ones...


new ones...

"the lacquer started coming off them due to them having a polished surface"

are these the real mcCoy as Ive got an e46 with 19" alloys and they still look perfick, 2 years down the line.

I think the m3 wheels (top photo) are starting to look a little dated. I like the 2nd photo. If you're still undecided, buy racing dynamics wheels - as they look amazing. Expensive though!

top alloys are nicer, but the bottom ones suit your car better.
