I absolutely love these wheels on my Tanzanite Blue II M3, the cerium color is perfect for what I wanted - classy wheels that didn’t dominate the car, nor easily looked past. They were delivered with BMW TPM’s and tires installed, so I could put them on right after ripping the boxes open. Shipping was fast, though I did need to fill out an import document and pay $280 to UPS to handle the importatation, but it was no big deal.


One of the best parts of the experience was working with Alex. He listened to what I was after, made some suggestions, and ultimately exceeded my expectations in customer service. We decided to go with 20” front and rear, 285/295 tires which are a tad larger than stock but meet the X-drive requirements.

I would recommend Edelweiss as an option to consider.

My 7 year old son said “Dad, those wheels are fi-nancial!!!” To which I learned ‘fi-nancial’ is apparently like awesome in his 7 year old group slang

Very nice, your spec is very classy but aggressive.

Was considering that color since it's so close to the BMW Break Dust finish. I went with the quicksilver and one drive around the block and Boom, they're dusted.

And agreed Edelweiss guys were great to deal with, some of the best customer service I've had in years. Dealt with Erik and answered all my questions and made the process of buying oversees reassuring.

Thank you! When you are due, maybe consider the iSWEEP pads. I have the 1500 and they do dust quite a bit less and the dust is a blonde color, doesn’t stand out as much.

I was in the same boat, especially when Apex came out with 20s. I decided on the LT3s from multiple people here on the forum, the great customer service and i believe the fit is perfect paired with KW HAS.

It's been quite the journey to get here, but finally my Frozen Gold LT3 Set is on. These wheels are definite eyecatchers, I have already gotten so many compliments on them in the few days I have had them on.

Personally, I worked with Erik and it has been a good experience. I've had lots of questions along the way, and always get a thought out answer as to the how's and why's of these wheels and what to do/not to do.

On top of that, this is a 1 of 1 Set in Canada, no other Frozen Gold LT3 sets here, I am very happy!

Love these wheels, strongly considering them for my car once the 19's come out.

Slightly dumb question, but does anyone know if the stock BMW center caps are compatible with these wheels?

They are not, I had this same question, the Edelweiss Centre caps are bigger. I believe the F Series caps fit.

Here’s another shot of the Cerium in the sun where you can see the hint of bronze. And this was after a full week of daily driving, almost 400 miles, with the iSWEEP 1500 pads.

Great shots OP! Looks incredible - I wouldn’t change a thing. Do you have yellow DRLs or stock?

I’m in same boat as many of you. Between Edelweiss Lt3, Apex VS-5RS and also HRE R101 LW. I want staggered 19”/20” setup, so if Edelweiss brings 19” to market, my decision would be the Edelweiss.

I emailed Edelweiss and was blown away at the level of info and helpfulness in response. That they ship wheels with TPMS and tires mounted really helps too. Apex was similarly helpful but Edelweiss seemed a cut above.

Also need to decide which shade of gold best complements the classy/sporty look I’m going for with my IOMG G80. I want not too bright, not too dark, so maybe Edelweiss’s Frozen Gold is best.

Thank you, and I agree that Edelweiss was very helpful, much more than a couple other wheel manufacturers I reached out to.

My DRL’s are stock white, not yellow. I went to MSU, so Blue/yellow isn’t my thing

Haha, love it. So with my IOMG you’d go Silverstone, silver wheels and stock DRLs.

I’m a Green Bay fan so yellow DRLs and gold wheels it is for IOMG/KO.

Also would recommend titanium lug bolts.

They offer a complete package, TPM sensors and tires mounted/balanced from Edelweiss. I mentioned to Alex that the top shelf selection would be ceramic coated and an option for titanium lug bolts. Talk about complete kit ready to bolt on!


You can see the difference in the wheel lug bolts:

I also went with titanium lugs from Acer. I absolutely love them and they act as wheel likes too!!

These wheels fit the G80 better than any other brand out there. I have the LT3 in 20/21 polished clear and absolutely love them. Always get stopped and asked about the wheels.

Got mine installed over the weekend after dealing with a Fedex induced delay.

Rubbing a bit in the rear against the textile part in the wheel housing. Other than that all great, love the look.
