The e36, 46, 90, and even f80 all look good with the classic style of comp wheel from the e46 m3 or the much loved apex arc 8. Strangely enough I also have yet to see a wheel that is the holy grail for this car. Except for the HRE 300..I want that wheel.[/IMG] |

The wheels have grown on me a little. These are ceramic coated and clean up easily with a weekly spray down (I probably drive 150 miles a week, or almost a full tank of gas!).
I personally think the Apex EC-7 or any classic basketweave/Motorsport design will look great on any BMW. For my car specifically (LBB), I think painted bright silver is by far the most timeless finish. Then polished aluminum would be second. I haven't washed these by hand in about 4-5 washes. |

The thing that throws me off of the 788 wheels were the coloring. The design itself is great. I had mine powder coated gloss black and it made a world of a difference. The wheels now have more depth.

Do the Teddy Bears clear the big brakes?
I ceramic coated the wheels (and calipers) on my car, major game changer for sure with the OEM pads making as much dust as they do. I like to practice with the thought process of pick whatever wheel you like....but with a caveat. It better make your lil M2 look good because if it doesn't, you'll be making the rest of us look bad! Here's my thought process on that; some modded honda Civics look good yeah? No, they don't! Because of the few dudes that stance'd them out and put coffee can exhausts on, that whole genre is now tainted. Don't do that to the M2 crowd!
