I have them on my red M3. They look really nice and simple. if you havent done so already, should check them out on tirerack, gives you a good idea of what it looks like. they do seem alittle darker in real life, kinda like the new M5 wheels, they are pretty shinny when they're clean, but can look somewhat dull when theres alot of break dust. if you do get them, should paint your calipers because the openings are prettty big. If you get them with 235/40, the wheels will be a bit taller then stock, i have my lowered with the eibach pro-kit, will send you pics if you want once i get them, hope this helps - dan kwon
