I would kinda have to disagree with that....i havent seen a car yet that they have been on that i didnt like. You hear alot of people say the wheels make the car, i persoanly dont agree with that buuut im pritty sure for the most part if you put th's on something its gonna be FTW :alright

so u dont think they look good on like mk4's n such? I mean yes there are deffinently better applications. After i get my GC's im thinknin of tossing a set on the e30 but i've nevr seen them on an e30 so it's hard for me to tell if i'd like it or not

Those TH's or whatever are really hideous. Like... too much going on. Similar in my mind to wheels that have replacable inserts for different colors or something.

Those 'twist spokes' are a big meh. I want to like them but the overall design just does nothing for me.

and as for the dynatech/carline/tracer deal

- carline bought dynatech, not just that wheel

- carline still makes the m6/cm6 - carline factory picture from visit

- tracer does not own the wheel

Agreed.

I really wanted to find Monoblocks(AMG) for the vert. That was the original plan for the vert. Never found a decent set for a decent price.

roflmao

I may still do it. The problem is the 17in and 18in versions that I want in the real PHAT monoblocks have offsets that may be in the 'too extreme' camp for me when I add on the 25mm adapters :(

VN-lines are horrid, i dont care if they're 2pc or not

I agree. Do nothing fer me.
