as long as the davins arnt a full face rim, most of them are. and the 4's should look good if done right. me personally i want to go witha luxury lite weight wheel in 23 or 22"

I'd, personally (see that?), like the Concept wheel setup. 21/22inch setup. We know the options are 21s so that's no biggie and getting 1 inch bigger out back isn't going to hurt the car. I sit in traffic a lot - performance won't worry me.

Size matters as well, despite weight gains or losses.

Wow...just wow....

When I had my M3 and participated on related forums, every once and awhile someone would jump on 'pimpin' their performance ride. They generally found that car specific enthusiast forums were not the best place to be showing off their bling.

From a performance stand point...big wheels are a no no.

Apparently standards are lower around here.

There was one thread where someone claimed that because the Camaro had a V8, wheel size didn't matter.

I have a feeling the board will segment pretty quick from the performance enthusiast to the appearance enthusiasts once people start getting their cars...I just hope we can avoid the clashes.

But honestly...putting 22" CHROME wheels with spinners on ANY sportscar should be a felony offense.

They should just put in a bling sub section, I'd be happy to only have moderation powers to move threads there.
