They look similar to the Turismo wheel from Interad but looking at the M3 more carefully, it looks like it has more spokes. See the Turismo wheel below.

Man I like these a lot more than my Mesh 8s. LOL! Nice finish too. I was going to do that with my Rads a while back but never pulled the trigger.

Oh well...I promised myself that the next set of wheels would be really really light weight; probably 1 piece forged and in 19s.
