Quick and dirty P-chops
Next project.
For the new car I am going to want to run a summer and winter setup. I like the idea of a lipless modern 5 spoke, also like the idea of doing a gunmetal finish so the car is very low on the radar. Something like this:  At the same time, the Roadster has LM's, all be it real ones. Would be kind of funny to run reps on this as it's my DD and I have no interest in chewing up real 19" LM's. The look is played out and a bit more flashy then I would like, but this wheel seems to look good on everything.

LM's are a timeless classic. I've owned them in the past and no matter how many times I looked at them, I never got tired of them! It's true though - daily driving significantly increased the chances of bending a wheel by chance pothole, especially in NJ.
What color is your car? Gunmetal definitely gives an aggressive look without being over the top, in my opinion. I'll probably go GM myself

Nice, I think there is still just enough contrast to make it work.

This my idea of a cool setup: 18" APEX ARC-8s and on lowering springs. My new 328 shows up in about 8 weeks and these are going as soon as it gets here. The M6 bumper will take a little longer.
