Ive seen pictures of them in gloss black with white time attack rings. Ill try to find the pictures. I suggest just letting them get real dirty. Than you can get a pretty good idea of how matte black will look.

There is one in this thread (post #20) http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=348655. I recall seeing pics of a convertible with black OE 18"s here, but didn't grab the image. The wheels in the image below may be black (at least they are close enough to get the idea).

I think I'll be there on the 19th max 20th of August.

Now I'm running Michelin Sport Cup (not Plus). Only a word ... INCREDIBILE !!! I have 235/40 265/40 (M3 CSL size)
Where did you find the Dunlop? Here in Italy I can't find those tires.

ps I want Akrapovic !!!!

Enrico,

I have a contact 5km from Nordschleife that sells them. The Dunlop Direzza 03G are better than Michelin PSC cups and cost allot less $$$$$$ The sizes are better for our heavier E9X M3's front 245-40-18 265-35-18 rear the tire is stiifer and has better turn the compound is stickier and last longer
