I like the black version a lot better, you can't see that old-school clamp-on weights lip. Looks great.

I should be getting my hyper silver and brushed clear samples today. The wife doesn't like the gold at all on LBB.

Looks Great! I ordered gloss black for my HS.

Couple of questions.

Did you get the M2C specific rear offset?

What size tire are you running?

Is that stock suspension/height?

Thanks,

Looks like MPSC2 in stock sizes at stock height.

Hi guys,

Sorry but I made a mistake! I wanted to post this in another topic.

The wheels I have bought are the M763.

Thanks! No, indeed I didn't wait for Steffen. It took too long for me.

I knew that lip looked fantastic, even in black .

You'll probably want to delete the pictures you posted in this thread, just to keep people who don't read every post from being confused, as the wheels look very similar.

Yea my baddd. Ill get them uploaded today!!!

[CoffeeLife]

Here are a few just taken with a phone. I still haven't had time to process the raws i took the other week. Sorry for the delay!!

A few notes. The gold is interesting. Maybe a true gold color depending on the light. Sometimes it looks blinding gold, or more yellow. Other times it has a hint of green/gold in low lights. If the sun hits its just right, it has this awesome shine of silver/gold.

Shipping was double packaged as well which was a bonus.

Eventually ill get more things posted!

Looks great man. What exhaust do you have?

[MASHCT]

They look incredible on your car. What a combo! VERY nice indeed!! Your pics clearly show the many tones that brushed texture has going on. I wonder if they have a silver base layer like the BMWs do. That last shot is really sharp!

What tire size are you running? I have 265/35 front & 285/35 rear, hoping they're not too stretched on the 9.5"/10.5" widths. (Waiting patiently for my wheels to arrive. I am on week 9...)

Thanks. Its a Remus Race Axelback with Chrome tips. Great sound under low loads and higher rpms but still has the midrange rasp.

I ordered a Valvetronic EL in December. Once that arrives ill give it a test and see which ine i prefer.

Added a few more photos from when i got the Remus installed.

Definitely has the machined silver base layer thats pops through depending on the light / angle. Ill finally get the raw photos converted and uploaded by next weekend along with a separate review thread.

Stock tires for now until i run them through this summer. I only had 1000km before wrapping them for winter storage

I dont rub but im lowered on AST 5100s w/ camber up front and maxed oem rear camber.

Edit: Im on week 19….. waiting for my EL exhaust. Seems the norm with exhaust/wheels or custom orders

I'm in love with those exhaust tips, and the exhaust itself. One day.

Anyone know what the deal is with the

"Clean Freak" Finish Matched 6061-T6 Center Caps

Can't really tell what you get if you check that box when ordering vs what you get if you don't check the box. *Edit* I figured this out.

Also sounds like I should be totally fine with a completely stock suspension setup on stock tire sizes if I order the ET+25 fronts (9.5 inches) and the ET +44 (10.5 inches) rears? Sorry for being a noob, I don't mess around with aftermarket wheels much, as this will be my first set.

[MASHCT]

I think it's that you get a center cap that matches the finish without any flourish on it at all - no logo, just a clean finished cap.

And yes, based on everything I've read in the forums & checking 1010tire.com's offset calculator, stock ride height you will be fine. These wheels are made to clear the hardware. Also, from what I've read, you can run 265/35 front & 285/35 rear tires on stock height, no rub. Gotta go to 30's if you lower the car, if I've read other folks' posts correctly. I went the 265/35 & 285/35 set up.

I think the 265/35 will most likely rub on the fronts with the M2C? Very tire dependent, but on the M2C, the tire shrouds are a little smaller at the front due to differences in the ducting of the motor. It may fit, it may not, or using a heat gun may be required.

I'd love to be wrong, but all of my research has pointed that way-- which is why I'm going 265/30 & 285/30 on my M2C, as much as I'd like to avoid a 30 series tire.
