19' BBS LM on my E92 M3

rich662 · 01-28-2009, 04:07 PM

nice wheels mate, bbs ftw!

tightie · 01-28-2009, 04:09 PM

wow, what a beauty.

JC919 · 01-28-2009, 05:23 PM

I think it looks perfect, the 20"s are too big if you ask me. The 19"s look purposeful, rather than just for show.

mach330 · 01-28-2009, 05:24 PM

love your setup. i was debating on 19's or 20's as well, but 19's are actually not that small looking as i thought it would be. yes please take a close pix of the calipers.

BCMPOWER · 01-28-2009, 05:48 PM

19 BBS Lm's look awesome, please post up some more pics, your car looks amazing.

nusevad · 01-28-2009, 05:49 PM

Looks great! BBS LMs ftw

hopofthese · 01-28-2009, 06:08 PM

I like the looks of 20's I have them on my other car, the 25 series and rubber band tires kills me everytime I hit a pot hole or a metal plate on the road.

19x9.5 32et front
19x11 25et rear

I will post photos of the front calipers tomorrow.

doba_s · 01-28-2009, 07:40 PM

nice !

MMMorish · 01-28-2009, 07:55 PM

Very nice indeed. I'm not into the painted calipers but to each their own. Your cars has a very nice look to it.

Adonislike · 01-28-2009, 08:26 PM

This looks sweet!!! I debated for a long time between the 19's or 20's n some BBS. Decided on the 19's for the ride quality. I think they will still look good. JMO

///M PWR 00 · 01-28-2009, 08:36 PM

You know what, I am surprised that they look as good as they do. The last time I saw BBS LMs 19s on a E92 M3, they looked tiny. I guess your offset setup made all the difference in the world. IMO, they look perfect and you know what, I am now considering 19s instead of 20s for mine. 20s are gonna require rubberband tires and it just doesnt sound practical for NY roads. Thanks for posting the pics, please put up as many more as you have! thanks

///M PWR 00 · 01-28-2009, 08:49 PM

Here it is photoshopped with the same ride height I will be going for. I think I just decided on 19s. Not to mention save some dollars!! Thanks for posting the pics! Please email me whatever other ones you may have projektm3@aol.com

wow, only if they made a suspension to go that low.. id get 19s too..
kw's barely cover the tire on 19s/20s in the front.

///M PWR 00 · 01-28-2009, 09:12 PM

They make plenty of suspensions that go that low. KWv2 or V3 will go that lower, if not lower. Coilovers my friend.... they are god.

I have.... but I dont drive in NYC a lot. I live in Yonkers which is like 15 minutes north of the city, and the roads are a little better. Either way though, I have and its not fun in the city.
