My New Track Wheels

M3 Esq. · 02-20-2013, 08:48 AM

My new (new to me) track wheels. I bought them from another forum member. When I took them out of the box I was surprised at how light they felt. When is all of this snow going to melt??!!

looking forward to seeing them mounted =)

radiantm3 · 02-20-2013, 02:58 PM

18" TE37SL's are the best wheels you can buy for the M3 when you factor price, performance, and aesthetics.

M3 Esq. · 02-20-2013, 03:07 PM

Thanks all, now I just have to figure out what to run for tires. I think I am going to stay on street tires for now, so Nitto NT05, RS3 and AD08 are on the short list, depending on the sizing I end up with. The wheels are 18x9.5/18x10.5 so I was thinking either 265/35 and 285/35 or 295/30. First track day is not until April so I still have some time...

bklynbimmer · 02-20-2013, 04:04 PM

Looks great! See you at Lime Rock? only a few weeks away!

Raucky2000 · 02-20-2013, 07:06 PM

Love um...great choice!

radiantm3 · 02-20-2013, 07:17 PM

I'm really happy with my 265/35, 295/30 setup. AD08's.

schnell325 · 02-20-2013, 07:25 PM

I haven't noticed that color before.....very nice purchase!

Yea out of the brands I'm looking at it seems the AD08 is the only one that comes in 295/30. Not sure if the others do.

I think it's called pressed graphite. It'll look on Jerez Black.

david @ eas · 02-21-2013, 03:21 AM

Let's see em mounted!

Car54 · 02-21-2013, 11:03 AM

Can't wait to see them spinning with the red spoke. Looking good!

jordanE92 · 02-21-2013, 11:05 AM

I'd be afraid of chipping those up at the track, nice wheels!

ussoldierforhire · 02-21-2013, 11:05 AM

Those are exactly what I want. Nice wheels.
