.:: PHOTOSHOP PLEASE - STANCING MY M3 - Need your help with fitment ::.

[Jorge]

Can you not just buy the widest you can get then if you need to space out the rears with spacers until they sit flush?

[.::M::.]

I am making good progress with the new mods for the M3, wheels are next after the new seats are installed...building a car in the US while living in the UK is a PIA.

I did a couple of photoshops of aggressive fitment that I want on the car, but looking at the website for the Work Meisters it doesnt seem like they have them wide enough or aggressive enough for what I need? Will you gurus have a look and see if there are any options on this link for fitment to get this fitment on and done!

Here are a couple of expectations

[.::M::.]

Photoshops all being done right now fellas! stay tuned

[Rebounder]

I vote completely white, even lips. or white centers and black lips

[Jorge]

White on white with polished lips is a safe bet... it would look awesome.

[.::M::.]

Thank you so much for all of that help I will get on all of that, I will post up a photoshop of it completed in a couple of days.

As for wheel color I was going to get everyones opinions...White centers are free, so is silver...I could do all polished for $500 more, but considered taking the wheel apart and doing it completely highlighter/flourescent yellow lips, with black face and highlighter yellow sides of the spokes

I'm 99% sure those will fit perfect, but just to be sure try PMing hinrichs and M3 guy to see how their clearances are. The 19x14 et-16 that I spec'd is the same backspacing as M3 guys car and a little over 1.5" more to the outside of Hinrichs fitment. As long as they didn't have to do any mods to make their wheels fit yours will go right on. Check caliper clearance to the back of the spokes too, I wouldn't want you to have to get spacers to clear them.

It's gonna look awesome though! 315's stretched will be insane haha. Are you going with white centers like the PS?

[.::M::.]

Give me time my friend When I go home this summer the wheels should go on, I just got confirmation from my work dealer that he can get me the fitment I want so its on like donkey kong!

[Jorge]

If you can do that, it will be epic.

You're basing your measurements off the inside fitment, -63 in the rear will stick out a lot more than the white one, even on his car with flares.

As long as your flares are really 1.5" per side and those are the correct specs for the white car, they'll fit perfect.

Thanks so much, they are def 1.5" wider...I will PM you if the measurement is off!

They will fit about like this?

[Byron]

going off of the white m3's fittment specs, assuming it's fenders are not flared.

(18x10 et 0) = (18x11 et -12)
add 1.5 inchs to the offset to account for flares 1.5 in = 38.1 mm

(18x10 et 0) = (18x11 et -12)-38.1= (18x11 et -50.1)

for the rear
(18x11 et -11) = (18x12 et -25)-38.1 = (18x12 et -63.1)

final change to 19 for your car
front (19x11 et -50.1)
rear (19x12 et -63.1)

someone check that for me please

ET-63.1 I havent seen that before, is it usually offered?

19x14, would that really work?!

whoops, just realized that its just your rears that are flared.

My turn


Going off specs I've seen here and there and believing your 1.5" wider fenders line, I'd say get the wheels made to

Front
19x10 et0
Rear:
19x14 et-16

They will sit exactly like that white M3 even with your widened fenders. You may even be able to go more agressive in the back, I don't know how much clearance the green M3 has on the inside.

[Rebounder]

That will give the fitment I want even with my flared rear fenders?
