I just ordered my new rims tonight. http://www.wheelmax.com/wheelcolors.asp?CtgId=1415&color=Hyper%20Light. I'm really excited. These are the first rims that I actually like on the 6 (no offense to anyone).

Yeah, except I can afford them. LOL! I'm getting married soon, and trying to buy a house soon too. So, I needed to cut something, so I went for the less money rims.

I love the way they look. I have them on my M3, but they are very very heavy and are going to slow down your car a lot.

How much do they weigh? They tols me 21lbs. My wheels are already heavy.

Gonna look good Tim! Couldn't you have made this decision a week ago so you would have them on for this Sunday. :finga:

Ha! You copy cat, those look like the *ugpraded* version of the exact rims on my car (also made by Excel but gunmetal w/ polished lip)

I think they are the same wheel as the hp evo. It is funny cause my buddy has the hp evo's, we sometimes switch centercaps. They are exact, offered in the same colors, same weight, even in the same sizes and everything. It seems like they are made by the same person and they put 2 different names on them.

Sorry, haven't been on to look at the posts in a little while.
Sexy, they're slightly different. Plus, I didn't even know you had Exel rims. LOL!
Smoger, I think I', already having problems with them. I'll find out tomorrow. I took the chance, cause I couldn't find them anywhere else.
Pale, HOLLYWOOD!!! Yeah, I know I should've ordered them last week, but the huge dent on my rear door would've taken attention away from the rims anyway.
Philly, You can still get the Evo's, it's not like I'm rolling in the same car. :D
Markley, I noticed that today at out car show, there was a TA, that had them, except he had like a 2 and a hlf inch lip. Mine aren't gonna be even close. Oh, and mine are 18x7.5. Wheelmax said 21lbs.
