Aggressive Offsets

Hey guys,

Iv'e been lurking here for a month, am expecting my 2009 E92 to show up in a week. I want to order some new wheels and an considering the Avant Garde 310's.

Wondering what you guys think of the following - front 19 x 8.5 et 15 and rears 19 x 9.5 et 15? Too aggresive?

I'll be running with stock PS'2 245/35 and 265/35.

Would really appreciate some feedback for a new M3 owner.

Cheers!

Read this post before you get new wheels.

Spacers make a big difference

Thanks

Hello Doc. J,

Excellent thread - thanks for that. I settled on an offset that looked like the OEM setup with 15mil spacer in front and 12mil spacer in back.

The Avant Garde 310 front wheel is a 19 x 8.5 with a 15 offset, so no spacers required. The rear is a 19 x 9.5 with a 22 offset so I'm going with a 10mil spacer.

Who do you use for work on your car locally?

I'm keen to do some auto-x or track driving - can you suggest any local clubs or associations?

Cheers

That would be perfect. You can even go fatter front/rear tire if you want.
