i'm thinking of getting these in 18" on my 328ci...

i'm not sure what brought my attention to them but i've been fascinated with them since first eyeing 'em. let me know if i'm halucinating or do you think these will look good?

they're basically built for bimmers. i'm not arguing with you, cause i'm asking your opinion, and i haven't decided for myself yet if i like them or not... but it would be funny if a company designs something for one particular car in mind and screws it all up

i think they look decent. but you could definitely do better. i tell you what helps me is seeing the rims on cars so go to cardomain.com and search 3series or m3 and theres like thousands of cars with rims on them. i think ive seen the type of rims on an m3 in there but they didnt look all that hot. you may even see the very wheels your looking at in there and on the samne type of car. it will definitely help

update for anyone who's interested...

i've taken your advice and have decided on the BBS. i'm probably going to go with the RX instead of the RG-R. same shape/design as far as the look goes, but one's forged and one's cast. i know how much less the forged weigh than the cast do, but i also know how much more they're going to weigh to my wallet...

and i like the more lux look of the rounder edges that the cast gave, compared to the sharpe, sporty, racey look that the forged version has.

its just what i'm looking for! so thanks to everyone. and i still cant figure out what it is about those AT Italia's that has me so facinated.
