Did you ever consider this

Did you?

20 inch wheels from an X6 actually do fit, right?

Happy Holidays!!!!!

It doesn't look too bad but looks better on a x5/6. 20's just seem too big on a e9x IMO..

For some reason, I think it makes it look like a regular 3 series with aftermarket rims. Not the worst I've seen though.

I just had mine off. They weight about 50 lbs each, not ideal.

That's what I also thought but just wasn't 100% sure and wanted to hear other enthusiast's oppinion.

Yeah same here, I said to myself just give it a try and see if it fit. 10mm spacers up front with 245s and 20mm spacers in rear 285s did the magic.

Not the same oppinion about the regular 3 series but as stated before definately not the worst you can do to an M. What bothers me though is I'm killing with all this extra weight my complete M performance and handling. As I mentioned it was just a tryout and might could even be used as a reference.
X6 wheels on M3 Ex do fit.

Been done for a while now on some of the stance kids cars and older 3 series. Looks ok I guess, not for me.

I like the look of 20s on the M3 most of the time, but these things are too vulgar and "truck-like". These look like a Tirerack special you got on Black Friday.

You sure? I still have the shiny chrome grill as well as the stock tips. A matte black theme could maybe ruin it.
Hey wait a minute anyone here with photoshop skill's? matt-black's anyone?
Would be cool to see if phrozen06's oppinion could be the real deal...

I do not mind 20" wheels on a M3 but personally I prefer thin spokes on a car....
Those definitely belong on a SUV. ..

Happy Holidays

Gotcha, to you also Happy Holiday's

I'm on the fence to dump them anyhow! They're are worth a few cents so I might end up selling them and get myself BBS or iforged...we'll see.
