As many of you noticed I placed a "teaser" thread, that thread received many posts, but more then that it received mass amounts of views. In that thread I spoke about the quality of the finish and my first impression of the wheels as they were still in the box.

Shipment time was about 5 days to my front door from date of purchase, and tracking number was supplied within a few hours of placing order.

Products showed up boxed, with soft covers over the lip and faces along with plastic rim lip protectors on each wheel for optimal protection!

I purchased tires on my own and had them mounted within a few days of receiving my wheels.

I then had to roll my fenders (BIG SHOUT OUT TO KEVIN AND ALEX AT AKM FOR GETTING ME HOOKED UP IN THAT DEPARTMENT - LOVE THOSE GUYS!), once they were rolled it was time to mount these bad boys up.

As I began the installation I felt like a kid in a candy store, every time I lowered the jack with a new wheel on a corner, I got all excited!

Upon completion it was relatively dark outside so I really couldnt see the fruits of my efforts, so I drove to the nearest parking lot that was lit up and man was I impressed!

They brought so much life to my car, bringing out all the other mods I had previously installed. My previous set up was nice and also a great product, but these wheels have it all over those.

I have had them on my car now for probably around a month and can tell you I get more compliments now then I had the whole time I had the other wheels.

The finish on these wheels is unbelievable!
The quality of the product is amazing!
The offsets I chose were et35 fr (I am installing a spacer to make a lil more flush, just my personal preference tho) and et20 rr which turned out better then I had hoped!
I have felt zero vibration or wobble from the wheel / tire set up.

I am not even going to say "For reps they are great", I am going to say, These wheels are great, because I dont care if they are reps or not.

I have seen many manufacturers try and mimic other wheels and these wheels are the best I have seen yet!

If anyone has any questions they feel I can answer, please feel free to shout at me!

I hope this has helped many who are on the fence about them realize the quality of the product!

Another shout out to Derrick @ www.E92-Lighting.com for all of my lighting, grilles, badges, (and much more) needs! Thanks Derrick!

Jlevi for the M3 Side Skirts and M3 Bumper! Fitment is dead on

I cant forget about ma Craigers either!!!! Thanks for all your guidance and help man!
