Some things never go out of style. When a design is timeless, it'll stick around for decades to come. Split-spoke mesh wheels are the denim jeans of the wheel world; timeless and widely manufactured. Titan7's T-S7 is a recent wheel design to feature the aforementioned spoke style. When matched with an near-equal timeless design such as the E46 M3, it's a match made in heaven.
The durable, forged construction of these wheels will hold up for many track sessions. Being lightweight for their size, the T-S7s also play nicely with the high-performance AST 5100 Series Coilovers. The 5100 Series shock absorbers utilise inverted / upside down technology. The inverted design is race proven technology and produces an extremely strong damper, providing better suspension geometry under heavy lateral and braking loads as seen in a road and track environment.
The Iridium Silver finish of the T-S7s also contrast nicely with the black Brembo GT-S Calipers and this M3's Laguna Seca Blue body. This M3's a highly functional beauty to say the least! -

This old blue warrior was in need of some big performance upgrades! The old and tired factory suspension was replaced with AST 5100 Series Coilovers. The 5100 Series shock absorbers utilise inverted / upside down technology. The inverted design is race proven technology and produces an extremely strong damper, providing better suspension geometry under heavy lateral and braking loads as seen in a road and track environment.

EAS would like to share a special day with our blog readers. Remember Laguna Seca Blue, inspired by the well-known Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca? Laguna Seca Blue (LSB) is a historic and very important color to BMW. In racing history, BMW Motorsports won their second win at this race track. Debuting on the E46, the color hasn’t been seen around too much on the newer models, mainly because to get your car painted in LSB a hefty price would have to be paid through the BMW Individual Program. How often does one get to lay eyes on a LSB F80 M3? Better yet, how often does one get to see two LSB F80 M3s together at one time? Witness the beauty below:

Made popular by the E46 M3, Laguna Seca Blue is a rare and quite unique paint color. The F80 M3 and F82 M4 have made Yas Marina Blue a popular color but when you see an F80 M3 in LSB, it reminds you of where the new M3 came from. Lighting drastically affects the color of the paint, during day a magnificent blue coating that is almost like Atlantis Blue but with a less reflective finish, during night the most iconic shade of the specialty blue. Just like the ocean side waters of Laguna Beach but more fittingly the blue Mazda logo for Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, the color is something special.

This Laguna Seca Blue M3 drove to us all the way from Northern California to get some major modifications. First items on the list for this E92 were the ESS VT2-625 intercooled supercharger system and the Macht Schnell race x-pipe, which rocketed this S65's power output from 347whp/259qtq to a beastly 535whp/359wtq! To slow down from the newly attainable speeds, we installed a StopTech big brake kit behind the 18" Volk Racing TE37SL wheels; 6-piston calipers in the front, 4-piston calipers in the rear. The Mode Carbon GT4 carbon fiber front lip spoiler, Vorsteiner carbon fiber trunk lid and a carbon fiber rear diffuser not only give this E92 an aggressive look, but they'll help add a bit of aerodynamic stability as well. Inside, we swapped the rear seats for a bolt-in roll cage, installed some gauges and a set of Pedal Haus aluminum pedals. Be sure to check out the full list of modifications below to get a complete idea of what this car is capable of on the street. Enjoy!

These are some of the nicest, cleanest, best looking and high quality wheels available on the market: the BBS FI. To make an M3 look THIS good, sometimes you just have to go with the best.
