FYI, the M6 wheel (Style 167M) and the 19" 335is wheel (Style 313) are two different wheels with two different sizes.

I put a set of HRE's on my M6 and then took the stock M6 wheels and put them on my M3. I already had the wheels powder coated semi gloss black when they were on the M6.

whatever you did it looks sick. i was actually thinking about buying a new set of HRE P40's in black but for $6000? I think the M6 rims look better on the M3 too

To those of you who posted pics, looks great, I like it a lot. I definitely think that 5 spoke wheels can be pulled off. We are wrapping up a few M3's as of now. I'll post pics once I get them.

so any M6 rim can fit on any e92 M3 with no problems? No spacers needed to make it look flushed? Can i swap my tires off my current rims and put it on the m6 rims with no issues? Why didn't I think of this before!?

The biggest problem with these is it makes the rotors look way too tiny! Too much open space in the wheels so unless you have a BBK IMO it looks really silly. The OEM wheels are nice as they disguise the rotors a bit more and they actually look beefy with the OEM wheels.

I know 255/35 and 275/35 also fits on our cars with 167M wheels.

I cant believe this isn't a popular setup. I think the style 167Ms are way better than the 19' OEM stock

Looks 10 times better with the original m3 wheels man-I don't know why people like to put other M wheels on other M cars. BMW usually knows what they are doing when choosing a wheel design. It is not random as they pay attention to every crease and how each piece of the car flows when designing a car, I do not have any doubt they incorporate the "right" wheel based on this design. This wheel just looks like it was not designed for this car folks.
