E90 M3 BBS E88 + Sparco Transformation

SunDevil_M3 · 02-15-2019, 11:47 PM

Hey guys,

I have owned my car for 2.5 years and it has been the most exhilarating car I have ever owned. Between the screaming high revving S65, luxury options, and unbelievable handling.... I have just grown to appreciate the car more and more week by week. I decided to really 'prep' my car for Bimmerfest 2019 and I wanted to make some changes that I have been wanting to do for a while.

I decided to order some new Sparco QRT-R bucket seats, huge thanks to Kevin at EAS with the great customer service. I went ahead and paired the exterior with some BBS E88's to replace my existing Mag Blue Volk TE37SL's. Still have some minor adjusting to do as I will be placing a 5mm spacer on in the rear or possibly a 10mm.

Next years mods will include some Ohlin's or some KW V3's to really get the stance dialed in. As for now, I am extremely happy with the outcome and will be doing rod bearings in the next couple weeks as well to ensure the car stays on the road for years to come.

Enjoy! As always, huge shoutout to Parts Score in Scottsdale, Arizona for taking care of me and helping me with this build. Would not go else where.

Well done!

Car looks good and the proper spacer as you mentioned on the rear wheels will definitely give it the proper stance

Thank you for sharing!

Looks amazing bro, once you get the suspension dialed in it should look perfect.

I agree and I sure do hope so. Has been a blast getting the car to where it is at now.

What wheel spec did you get (width and offset)?

dean87 · 02-20-2019, 11:39 PM

18x10 +15
18x11 +35 (Hence needing the spacer)

Yes, that's not the rear spec I would have suggested. However there are some advantages- The biggest reason to get that version is because it fits the F8x. Plus you have the option of running a wider tire and dialing the fit with a spacer.

Since I bought used it was okay. I plan on upgrading to a 305 or a 315 so the offset will work with the spacer.
