Looks very nice, love the wheels. I would like to see about half the gap that is there. I think that would look nice but still provide enough room for the suspension travel.

i dont know, i was against crazy color wheels for a long time, but now i feel like the usual silver, polished, or hyper black colors are - while still classy and clean - kind of boring me.. why not do something eye-catching and crazy. within reason..

Yup these are going to be my track wheels. I've been waiting for the release. I'm thinking hot pink or cobalt blue. RPF1s need a little help to make them pop.

Also interested in whether there is any rubbing... Full lock-to-lock ok? High-load turns?

Have you had an alignment? If so, interested in specs.

How much do they weigh each? Looks like there is room for 245/40R17 in the rear, what about up front?

Thanks!

Let me know if you have any questions or comments!
I've seen your M3 at Shelly BMW about a month ago. I drove the GT-R out there and saw your car parked on the other side of the street on the side of the dealership. I have a BRZ on pre-order, but I stopped in and talked to Mo who let me test drive a 135i I was considering for a DD vs the BRZ. Long story short, I've decided to stay with getting a BRZ for a DD. lol. Sweet looking M3, I actually asked the salesmen if it was for sale, because I really liked it, and they said it was a customers car. lol

Thanks
Not sure on the camber, probably Neg 1* all around right now. The 235/40/17 with another 10-15mm of lowering should be fine, a little more camber in the front would help though. No rubbing at all right now.

These cars don't need a bigger caliper unless you're going to add quite a bit of horsepower... I'll try to snap a shot showing the clearance. Also I think Enkei is working on a 17x9+45 for 5x100 which would be better suited to the track.
