I got it from the IND Vorsteiner VRS Type II pre sale for $850 shipped I believe. Prolly not worth all that money, but I like it.

DrewsBimmer · 03-05-2009, 08:20 PM

Man I love it, thats what exactly what i want my M3 to look like. PERFECTION

leletyM3 · 03-06-2009, 02:36 AM

Very nice....but Kumho tires??

///M PWR 00 · 03-08-2009, 06:23 PM

A couple of things in this thread bother me...

1. The guy(s) who say Volks wheels are "cheap"... lol fucking tool. Rays wheels are very performance oriented and I suggest you educate yourself before making ignorant comments. Like Tut said, those volks on his ride are probably lighter and stronger then the garbage wheels I see on new M3s all day.. take it from someone who has been in the wheel buisness / modding scene for a while... I know what Im talking about... Ive seen 7,000$ HREs split in half.. not bashing HRE for the record...

2. I laugh when I read the comments about LeMans blue, or Interlagos for that matter, being a "hard to match" color... Yeah, they are hard to match if your a fucking moron. If thats the case you shouldnt be in buisness actually... So the body shop "Bimmian" uses to get shit painted needs to go out of buisness and stop making excuses for not being able to match colors...

Tut those wheels look awesome especially on Lemans.... good job man, keep it up. Cant wait to see it dropped! If you dont have EDC the coilover choices are good right now... Grab a set ASAP!

Im gonna run RD springs until someone comes out with a EDC compatable coilover.

dannyd86 · 03-08-2009, 07:42 PM

Gorgeous. Le Mans Blue is hot! These pics really make it look good.

Why have multiple people said that? If you don't like Kumho tires please back up your statement. Kumho tires especially their R compound tires are very well respected.

gtrokin330 · 03-09-2009, 08:21 PM

why are so many M3 guys going for beefier rear tires?

i guess it is like you wearing a Tom Ford suit and wearing pair of Payless shoes.

t0eknee_C · 03-10-2009, 06:57 PM

thanks for the pics. working on a client who is debating on whether to go with 285/35-19 or the 285/30-19 on the rears.

Wheels look awesome. thanks for sharing.

I definitely won't mind having a setup like S65B40's car. 35 profile in the back for me.

Rubbing won't be an issue in the front. You would be surprised how low you can go in the front without rubbing fender. You are more likely to rub the front bumper of your car because you are so low before you have to worry about the wheels rubbing in the front.

That analogy just doesn't work. There is always a more expensive car or tire out there so who says what is a Tom Ford suit or a Payless shoe. I could see complaints if they were some no name tires from a company nobody had heard of. What tires should I have bought? Why pay $1600 for a set of Michelin PS2s that will wear out in 10,000 miles when I can buy the Kumhos for half the price and get at least twice the miles. Then I can spend that money I saved on R compound tires for my 18"s. After putting some miles on the tires they are sticking just as good as my OEM PS2s did. I don't see people pissing on the Nitto Invo tires, and they are no better than these SPTs.
