    Thumbs up

    Very nice. The matte finish works great (not sure if that's what you were trying to achieve). I always liked darker colored rims.

    i think they look great... i considered doing that too for my car in 18s... but what i was gonna do was have it painted black and polish the lip like the picture, but keep the bolts unpainted and shiny... that's what i was gonna do...

    i changed my mind on hamann's after i tried to pick one up off the rack. And hey whatcha know... the ACS type three was right next to the hamanns.... hence how i chose my rims... anyways that's my short story.

    that pic looks awesome derek

    I agree that the PG2's are heavy as hell but hey they look great. I didn't factor the weight part into it when i got them, they jes looked great and i have no regrets!

    What about Kinesis Motorsport gun-metal rims? Pretty high-end. I am afraid to ask how much they retail for.

    The kinesis rims are excellent, light, strong and expensive. I think they are made to order specific for your car. That add is what made me decide to trick out a 4 door 325 instead of another coupe like my last one.

    That is what I was gonna do to my cheap ass wheels...

    The Kinesis ad inspired me to powder coat my 5 spoke wheels to a gunmetal or matte black finish..(like the wheel in the brochure with a polished lip)

    But still considering it, all I want now is the E46///M3 kit

    ( that's if I keep my E36)

    I have a 2002 BMW ///M coupe

    315 bhp!!!

    It's already ordered and set for March Production!!!
    Will Arrive just in time for summer and I WILL NOT MODIFY THIS CAR!!!

    I think I am through modifying BMW and wil enjoy it!

    But If I can't sell my car, I will pull a loan against the title of the E36 and pay off the balance on the Coupe!!

    Fiske wheels are very high quality... I love those wheels, but IMO i think Fiske wheels fit better on coupes and sports cars than sedans... the wheels look a lil' too aggressive for sedans...

    I also love HREs lines of wheels... i wanna get a set of HRE 540s or 545s wheels for my next car, whatever that might be... and since saeed said they're pretty light, well lighter than it looks, im considering it a lot. But it'll go on my next car, whatever that may be.
