anyone have the Sport Edition SM3 Wheels?

anyone have the Sport Edition SM3 wheels from tire rack? Would like to see them on a real-world smart and not the mock-up on the tire rack website.

Can you change the color if you do a pannel swap?

they have been around for awhile but I can't believe nobody has a set yet..the price is good and the kinda look like a Benz logo and Yes Forest you get all 4 colors so you can swap then whenever you want.

I will on Tuesday. I bought the rims (with TPS installed) and got them in last week. I'm having the dealership put snows on them and mount them when I go in for my 10K service on Monday. I'll post the pics here as soon as I can.

My main reason for going with them was I wanted to get my snows on rims so I could change them out easier. The rims on TR were a little more expensive than the dealership, but not much. The killer was that my dealership insisted that the rims have TPS installed, or they won't mount them. Then they mentioned the TPS from them cost $600 for a set of 4! (TireRack sells them for $144 a pair, installed if you get their rims.)

Yes, you can. If you put the color you want mounted by default in your comments area when ordering they'll put those on for you as well. The plates are simple to change with the supplied alan-wrench if you want to, and the plates shipped are pretty simple. I'm betting if you have a custom car color, you could ask the shop to paint these as well while doing the car.

I have to say, I was impressed by how they looked when I got them. They looked just as nice in the box as they did on the website. Hopefully they'll look just as nice on the car.
