Need Recommendations for wheels

Mtroise46 · 07-03-2011, 08:23 PM

I have a 2005 e46 M3 ZCP. I have been driving DEs on APEX 18X9.5 with Dunlop Star Spec 265/35/18. I'm told that I should move to R compound. Any recommendations on wheel size and tires?

I ran Michelin Pilot Sport Cups in 265/35-18 on the front of my e46. I was on 18x9.5 wheels also. That car was hooked up. If you have stock or near stock suspension, you'll need to run more camber up front; more than 2 degrees negative.

I have PSS10. On your pic, the rear wheels seem to be wider. Do you find that better than a square setup?
