Looking on the Tirerack's website, they have two diffrent GT3's, one with a Bright Satin Silver finish, the other is silver with a machined lip.

Looking at the pics of the bright satin silver one, they look almost anthracite with a machined lip. Is this correct or are the pics deceiving?

Also, when I select the 9.5 rear, it says there are no tirea available for fitment. What are the best sizes to run on front and rear so I have matching tires and no rubbing?

TIA

The Bright Satin is the same finish that is on the new M5 and M3 wheel. It kind of looks like smoke chrome.
Are you looking for 18" or 19"? Both are available. You can run the 9.5 rear with a 255/35R18 rear tire but you may have to roll the fender lips.
If I can help let me know.
Thank you

Well, I am looking at the 18". I think 19 is just too big for an E36. I would really want to avoid rubbing and rolling the fender.

What size would you recommend in that case?
