I saw the wheels on an SL63, but they're the same, or very similar.

Wow, hot damn that looks really good! Reminds me of Leo's [Benzito] wheels, but these look a lot more aggressive! I like!

oh, and my grille is being repainted...



Looks good man. Did you have to get the adapter? Looks very good, not only wheels but the whole car.

I like it

Here's my 325xi (lowered with H&R and Koni Sports) on the ASA GT1s:

Hope this helps for anyone looking for them shown on an actual car...

Sorry the pic is grainy - it was taken at dusk last night after I put them on.

Are they concave at all? In the original stock photo they look like they concave, but in your pic they almost look flat? Thanks in advance.

+1 looks good

They're pretty flat and I totally know what you mean. I loved the concave of the CSLs & reps (VB3s) and it was hard to tell on tirerack's computer-generated car picture. I do really like the way these turned out, even without a concave.

I looked all over and couldn't find one single car photo that had these wheels mounted. That's why I'm trying to spread these photos to help give buyers an idea of what to expect. I'm glad it's working!

-I do apologize for the grainy photo - it was late last night when we finished putting the s'pension on...

Air-Ride

Is that where it's adjustable. Up. Down?

Cost?
I wouldn't mind the air-ride, sounds better than c/o's and springs for my purposes anyways.

there's no specific kit made for our car. all are customs. if you are willing to spent big bucks go for it.
