    They're for my M2 CS, but I'll put them on the E46 just to see what it looks like for a sec.

    That's a REALLY good look to me... different, modern, polished and OE look... nicely done.

    I'm not obsessive about wheel weight so I'll trade it for optics. I'll just get e88s until I get tired of them and then move on at some point.

    The TEs are 18x10 +25. And yea I'm happy with how the ZEs look on the X5. I've always liked bronze on black and the fitment just happened to be absolutely spot-on with some chunky tires. Those are 18x9.5/10.5 +22 staggered.

    That's not the right fitment for me, but I would love to see how that looks on an e46 M3.

    E88s that are purchased from Team Schirmer only take about a month to deliver to your door - my set took exactly two weeks to arrive after placing my order:

    TEs are my forever wheel and I still have my OG square FS set to switch between the E88s.

    I should have my Shirmer E88s this week. Ordered them almost exactly a month ago. US customs was an absolute pain in the ass to deal with but at least the import fees were way less than I expected.

    Do you happen to have an exact weight on the Schirmer spec E88? Didn't see anything on their website.

    I'm still debating between gold and silver. I had gold LMs in 2003 so methinks I might go with silver.

    Too many rims not enough space man.

    They still look good though hence why I will add to the armory.
