Ive had my fair share of aftermarket wheels and Im settling down with the ZCP wheels in black. It has the concavity I like and the style compliments the body lines of the e92 perfectly. Looking back 6 years ago, some of the popular "forged" deep dish wheels I really liked before look really gaudy and dated now

I love my ZCPs! But I do miss my silver ZCPs when clean.

I agree. Deep dish wheels look like they are from the 80's and don't really look good on a modern car. I'm not sure what the fascination with them it.

Thanks for the pic. It looks like it was taken in front of EAS. I'd need to see it with silver ZCP's to make an informed decision. I was never a fan of the black 359's. That picture makes me consider just keeping the OEM F8X 19's.


P.S. I wonder if those are legit 359's or VMR replicas.

Ew. No offense to the owner. Never liked black 359s. Even less so on the F82. Now, some silver 437M wheels on an E92 M3 and you might have something . . .

I forgot who mentioned it on this thread but if you use a sealer wax compound on the wheels after washing them, they will stand out and look more polished, maybe thats what he was using?

Such a sweet stance! What size spacers in the front and rear? Also, do you have any problems with the set up?

Yes it was at EAS and these are factory 359's, not Avant Guard's (VMR doesn't make a perfect replica 359 like AG does). Sitting right next to this delicious car from the Paul Walker collection going up at auction shortly.

I ran a 12mm up front and a 15mm in the rear, and I had no issues whatsoever. I had to pull up my old for sale thread to reference the sizes. LOL! How soon we forget. The set-up was perfect. Given another E92 ///M3 with EDC, I'd do the exact same set-up again.

Ah okay. Thanks for clarifying. I'd love to see silver 359's on a blue or black F8X.

I agree. I also think silver 359s on a mineral white would look good too as the red brake caliper provides some nice contrast.

Wait, you mean 12mm in the rear and 15mm in the front?
