Actually..... if someone is going to photoshop.... for my purpose I would like to see them on a E63 (stratus gray)

Looks like the Z4 and the Stratus Gray M6 (the bottom picture) have about the same angle.....!!!

How about M6 wheels for winter and Breyton for summer?

I'd pick Breyton, make your car more unique than those m6 wheels (too much replicas on the road)

That was exactly my first reaction to Andy545.

And in the pic the 19" look just a bit (too) small.

hehe..sorry to make this hard for you GJ !

don't get me wrong - I like the GT race it's a top wheel (although the cast alloy doesn't impress me) -the M6 is the only OEM forged wheel...and for 1350euro for a set (quite tempting) - well I'm going tomorrow to pick up a set anyway. Look, I like the M6 wheel mainly from a performance standpoint, you prefer the optics (20") and unique look of the Breyton: go for it !
