Wheel Experts' new project M3

Since a lot of you guys in the CLK forum know me, I thought you might like to see this.

Presenting the very first set of HRE 843R in 19" - 2" lip front and the new 3.5" lip for the rear (first one ever made)

enjoy

actually I forgot to take a wheel/tire out of the trunk. Its a bit low even for my taste. After taking it out, the rear went up to where it used to be (the same as the front). It was actually about 1/3 inch difference.

I actually like how it sits in the pix

That's a nicely fixed up M3, those front lip and sideskirts really made the car look aggressive ! Maybe add some of those lip spoiler on the trunk next ? I think it'll look nice.

I don't like at all, but I don't like all Hammann do perhaps it's the reason.
