Default New wheels on my M3............................
Christmas has come early this weekend

After looking for ages for some new wheels for the 'M' I was going to go for the Volk racing TE37 but I thought they were a little to 'jap' for the car so went for some BBS CH 8.5x19" and 10x19" ...
I think they suit the car pretty well!!!

I do indeed, I like them on my car in 19" flavour and think they REALLY suit that BM as well







Just waiting on the centre caps and I'm done!
