I have been entertaining the notion of getting a new set of wheels for my car. A set of rims that have always caught my eye right off the bat are the m6 rims and how clean and refined it looks. With that being said, what do you guys think about the look and do you guys have any other suggestions?

I think those are about $10K-$12K for the set. Not sold to consumers. But, Nelson, you should find a way to grab some. :biggrin I'm with JP.

they look pretty good and modbargains has them i believe

me personally they are too open and i have no braking mods, so there is alot of open space lol

i do like m5 rims though

That's my #1 beef with them. The spokes look too thin to me, and there's too much space for a car that doens't have a Big Brake Kit, so it leaves the brakes ruining the look.

on a serious note, here's a site with every BMW wheel type. (its in German, but you can figure it out)

on an even more serious note, look at the rear quarter panel in front of Dunlop and under H&R. "BBS". now you know where to get the wheels...

I just don't see the M6 wheels "flowing" right for the E46. Not sure what it is.

For the E46, I think BBS all day, if your pockets are deep.

CSL reps tickle my fancy as well, and I really like APEX ARC-8s too.

You can probably see a trend developing in my wheel aesthetic preferences.

LM reps are fiscally responsible as well as the Forgestar F18's.
