E36 Contours or M3 rims

[Doomsdaya]

End of this month I'm getting my vanos sorted, which then leaves me with rims & tyres now I'm looking at getting OEM rims but can't decide what I want, Contours or M3 rims :thinking: which of the two you guys think will look better on my car....

Below is a pic of Jandre's POFS with Contours & standard suspension, my car will look like this as it's the same colour...

Couldn't find a pic of an Alaska blue e36 with M3 rims, but it should look something like this because of the 40mm drop...

Please feel free to comment & vote :thumbsup: its free

Both look good on an E36. Perhaps look for a decent set of either before deciding, as they are not easy to come by in good condition. Watch out for refurbished rims too, as some could have some nasty repair work done.

Tough choice both these wheels look awesome on an E36, Contours are probably not as "common" as the M3 wheel....

Contours :inlove:

The more I see the pics the more I'm liking the contours, think with the car color the contours would look great :thumbs:

If you close the split between the spokes on the M3 wheel, it is almost the same as the Contours :rollsmile:

forged motorsport stamped m3, contours, other m3, in that order for me

Whichever you find a decent set in ? The M Rims are way too common but they still super hot , if you can find contours , go that route

Indeed & thats what I'm looking for, a rim that compliments the colour of the car....

StK you have no idea how much I want throwing stars or E39 M5 rims for my E36 :inlove: Because of the offsets, they won't fit my car

How do you guys in the UK get them to fit ???
