Has anyone got a picture of an M3 on 16 rims, ideally BBS, ideally BBS RS?
I wanted 17", but I've been offered some 16" ones and want to see what they'll look like.
Thanks.

Yeah, I think you're right. The red M3 cab looks like its sporting 16's.
Are they big enough or should I wait for 17's?
Thanks for the pics- its made me just that little bit more excited about picking the car up tomorrow night!!

Here's mine, on 16s. It's been lowered, and the fronts have spacers on.
Not a great pic, but it gives the general idea.

god dammit i command thee to give me ure 16in!!!!
they would look the nuts on my red iS under standard arches on m3 running gear!!
i may have to settle for 15in initially and keep my eye out for the 16s- i dont see why they are so rare, as all m3s after a certain date had them as standard didnt they??

The only reason I can think of is because owners are hanging onto them to put the car back to original.Karan wrote: i dont see why they are so rare, as all m3s after a certain date had them as standard didnt they??
