That is a photo from my HRE dealer, the wheels are being shipped to me as we speak. I think on Monday as Friday is a holiday here in Sweden and no tire shops are open during the weekend.

Yeah, I needed some color on the car. It can't be all black and white!

Nice. I'm looking forward to pix. I wasn't planning on changing my wheels but I'm hesitating on powder coating the stock wheels in case I want to change them back one day.

Yeah, I wouldn't paint the stock wheels either as it is impossible to restore them to how they are. One thing if they are painted from the start but now they have the half polished half painted look...

To be fair I had a longer look at my wheels today again and it is almost impossible to find a better looking wheel for the car than the stock wheels.

I agree! Maybe I'll just pick up the same ones in all black to preserve mine.

Agreed.

Haha. I've actually never seen my car move (as a spectator). I'd stare too!

I agree, but even better in silver. That's the way I am going once my m2 is delivered. AW with silver rims, should me perfect.
