    I actually don't mind the RS on anything up to the E46 and E39. I would like to see a little more tire but, I guess that isn't really possible.

    I like it. Paul is doing a set of 16in centers with 17in lips for my e30 m3.

    But yes, the wheels themselves are stunningly gorgeous. I just wish they were a little narrower and on an E30 M3. :)

    Thanks for sharing C, hopefully the next set up we build will get a bit more love than the RS!


    I still wish we went with 3" lips up front, but you know that! haha
    Paul!! <3

    Lady's and gentelmen , this is the man behind the incredible work. I couldn't be happier with my wheels. Through out the build I was able to be become great friends with another fellow enthusiast (Paul). I have had wheels built before in the past. Paul is by FAR the best, and the most humble! :) this is your go to guy for incredible work!! Hit him up! There is truly NOTHING this man can't do!

Also the 18s make it look squatter and tougher, like big body VIP cars that go really wide on 18s. The 'easier' way is an inch bigger but to pull off wide 18s is harder than it seems.
    Thanks guys!

    This is an aggressive street car not stanced.
    It's def not for everyone's taste but thanks for commenting and looking! And yes this is a very clean/lowered fitted M3. Nothing crazy. Just clean ;)

    Yes the e46 non-M was on CCW classics. It's great wheel but it's been done 1000 times over on a e46. So I wanted to aim for something a bit different. I still loved those ccw's though!

    Yessir, I was going for a very flush a clean look :)

    That urge will fester until you do so. The ride is phenomenal. The note is orgasmic. The wife will have a sudden urge to say "Faster!"


    Also fold down rear seats...I miss those soooo bad.

    I'm obviously a fan of AW E46 M3s, but I have to say that RSes just don't really do anything for me on the E46. They just look too out of place. The other issue is that the wheel well is not full enough, what with the smaller than stock tire diameters.

    ...and if you are going to go for shiny, honestly, 19" wheels turn out better.
