      I was thinking yellow caps to match my brakes. A little much, I know. Probably won't. Just trying to be a little different.

        In all seriousness I think you can color match the car but not sure about yellow brakes and center cap. The few yellow center caps I've seen have been Ferrari.

          Not my thing, but how about these:

            Ya we discussed those maybe on M3f before it went down. Lack of center pocket was a big turn off iirc. Similar to these bimmerworld wheels, not the best offerings of widths/offsets.

            To wrap up this thread on a personal note, I just bought ARC-8s. I got a little too excited with these BWs, but took some time to contemplate it.

              Damn . . . these look great.

              What about those CSL wheels Epoustouflant is having produced ?

              I thought there was talk of 18's with those.

                I don't want to disparage Matt, but that one seemed more like a pipedream to me. And with no idea of if/when it would happen, or specs or weight, I went with a known quantity in the 19lb, low offset, ARC8

                  Matt is doing the lords work

                  But I totally understand.

                  I am excited to see pics!

                    TBONE! Don’t reinvent the wheel (pun intended). Get yourself a set of the new Sportlines—they changed the offsets—and send them off to be powdercoated in proper OE silver . . .

                    I think the new(ish) design and better offsets will make you happier the second time around.

                      Max, I goofed. I should have just bought your Apex. Ended up with a set now, 9x10". Sportlines refinished look good! I didn't want 8.5"/9.5" for a 4th time in a row, however.

                        And I goofed by not just holding them for you! Ah well, at least you know what you’re after. For those of you not named TBONE, here’s my car on Arc8s 9/10 (such a good looking wheel):
