Yes very similar, looked at MORR, just wanted that really deep concave in the rear. I had my CSL wheels powder coated a similar color to these on my E46 M3 and loved them, so I figured i would do something similar on this car.

20x9.0 with a 245/35/20 up front and the 20x10.5 SDC with the 285/30/20 in the rear.

Thanks yea fitment is pretty spot on. Could have gone w/ a tad more aggressive offset in the front, but all in all happy w/ it.

Was there a reason you didn't for deep concave in the front instead of semi deep? Nonetheless it looks amazing!

First, your car with the F14's was my inspiration for this set up. looked so good!

I was 50/50 on doing SDC all the way around, I'm a big fan of the SDC rear and i think the flat front wheel makes the rear look even deeper and bigger. Just person preference/style.

Thanks for the like, Im real happy w them so far. I have been getting a ton of compliments.

Thanks!, Wheels really change the whole look of the car. My wife says "it looks more racey" haha, I think it looks faster/sportier to the average person that is not into cars going w the gunmetal color.
