Thank you! These wheels were sized specifically for the SEMA show, and have a 10.5" rear width with a +25mm offset. I would not use that size for a production fitment as it limits your rear tire width slightly.
I can put together an even better offset for our clients, which allows the use of a 295 width rear tire. I can PM you more info, if you'd like.

Correct! The build quality of these parts is literally bar none the highest I've seen among aftermarket carbon components.

The same is true for every fashion brand (Coach, Chanel... All the way up to Tom Ford, Givenchy, YSL, etc.). They make good margins on leather goods and clothing but a killing in perfume and accessories. Why? Because they're selling the allure. Their $50 metal charms are 99% profit because they're selling the brand's allure. The key is keep improving your halo product (whether it's the M6 GC or a handbag) so the allure is never gone. The same is largely true for BMW Performance parts; the fact that your M3 is special and has bits of CF lets the whole world know you have better taste than the average pleb. |

Good on 3D Designs for putting out very nice products. I honestly hope they sell well, as the more aftermarket options we have to choose from the better!!! |
Thank you! To be honest, I spent quite a bit of time looking at the 3D Design M4 components when they first arrived at IND. The build quality is literally second to none, and I say with some regret that there is absolutely no way that I could build these pieces for this price in the US. Each component is of pre-preg autoclaved construction and uses a great deal of plies, many separate components, and complex tooling. I am frankly a bit surprised that 3D could build these items and sell them for these MSRPs.
