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

[SIN3]

i think what everyone is forgetting is you can poke the shit out of 18s all day long. its when you get into 19/20s you cant poke as hard. the taller tire will force you to raise the car or run insane camber at -4+ to fit a 10inch front or even a 10.5. to me 10.5 up front is too much. do keep in mind you have a M3 and you have S54 under the hood. the last thing you want to fall into is mexi poke. its very easy to get there. 19x10 should be the widest you should go on a M3.

I have a 19x9.5 et10 19x10.5 et-5 currently. I can go a lot wider but i like to be low. right now i am tucking rim in back and tire in the front. i think its silly when the car has poke and its 10 feet off the ground looks like a rally car.

slam tuck > poke & lifted.

to me its more respected to drive a slammed car then a poke car. But to answer your question here is my ideal set up since you dont drive this lovely car you purchased from another member.

19x10 et mid 20s 235.35 or 245.30
19x10.5 et 25-0

add spacers respectively.

just tired of the look, thinking about doing a more track or square setup

[Jorge]

That is pretty hard to choose, I like S1s

[.::M::.]

I just emailed work for fitment confirm


S1 or CR01?

S1



CR01

[.::M::.]

Agreed, I will just send an email thanks for the kick in the ass

I would buy your wheels but after shipping and replacing the lip I would be into them for about the same as a custom S1 setup and 19s barely clear my brakes as is Plus why would you change, your car looks great as is!

12.5 if I didnt look at the wrong size right?

What I meant was, if Work is able to make an 18" wheel up to 15" wide with a 10 offset, they should be able to make you a custom lip that would let you go wider than 12.5" with 19's. Try contacting them directly and seeing if they could make it happen.

[hinrichs]

just buy my wheels and get bigger rear lips....wait you want 19s nvm

[.::M::.]

12.5 if I didnt look at the wrong size right?

[Byron]

I'm pretty sure work can make custom lips for the 19's that would fit your needs. Look how wide the 18's go

[hinrichs]

Yeah I know it was yours lol it was teh most aggressive M I could think of.

yeah not many people go agressive with them, i still wanna go wider in the rear to match the front but those wheels are gonna get pulled and sold soon or just gonna sit for a while

[.::M::.]

I know the Topaz wasnt an M3, neither was the s2000 haha, I just meant that I liked its fitment if were transferred to my car, your car looks great and great fitment, the fronts will be ideal with your size, the rears as of right now, nobody could measure properly until the summer when I return home which I wanted the new wheels on before then. Rotiform has great wheels, maybe I should just consider going that direction if the meisters arent aggressive enough?

[Jorge]

Yeah I know it was yours lol it was teh most aggressive M I could think of.

[Anonymoose]

Buy your wheels and send em to rotiform for maximum spec win. Can you not get someone to measure things up for you? Coz you won't get exactly what you want if your going off others cars

[hinrichs]

the pic jorge used is my car and i have stock fenders btw....and the first pic with the blue 3 series isnt an m3

older pic....i think my front camber is the same im just slightly lower

[.::M::.]

What is the widest spacer you can run though, and is it safe to do so, especially under 550hp?

Is it possible to run a diff bolt pattern, and use an adapter to fit to my 5x120?
