Default Opinion on M3 CSL Rims/Replica on FM tC? Fitment?

So Ive always been a big fan of the E46 M3 CSL Rims (the CSL's in general to be exact =]) and I was wondering how it would turn out on a TC? IDK anything about the fitment or even the estimated looks. Would it even be possible? Has anybody ever done it? If possible, can someone possibly photochop a CSL on the tC?

You can prob look into some BBS CH, you can get that in 5x100 which is easier than running adapters to try to fit the M3 wheels.

He used adapters. There isn't a 5x100 option on Velocity Motoring (VMR). Wheels are the VB3 model according to the post.

Effective offset is +20 front and +25 rear. With the front being 8.5" it would probably fit no problem. The rears being 9.5" would take some work.

For the price youd pay for OEM BMW rims, youd be better off just buying something aftermarket that looks similar. Not to mention youd be able to order it in the correct bolt pattern too so you dont have to run adapters.

I think that is one of the best looking wheels i have seen on a tc, I had always wanted to do a set of velocity motoring v710 on my tc they are really similar to the miro wheels,
