Seriously, you drive a mass produced car anyway. What's the big deal?

Want unique paint the car pink and put Ronal Bears on it

^ ONE of the reasons ppl ppl do aftermarket to stand out and be different. Having everyone in your LOCAL area with the same wheels defeats this purpose.

As much of a Volk fanboy I am, I think the HRE suit the M3 much better.

I still like those. No vendor account so I understand. I voted for the Volk.

I vote for the G2 but in 19" version over the 20" version. I. I like the 6 thin pokes that will show more your BBK set up and IMO it look cleaner and classy enough.

ts unfair to compare the HRE with lips vs the G2 with no lips but hey that just me...

I'll just state for the record as this thread sinks like a stone towards the bottom of the page; Volks NEVER look right on German cars. Design cues that simply don't match.

<----Volk Fanboy!

In this specific thread, the HRE's look nicer, should've considered Volk Winnings if your going for that style setup....
