King Tut's 2012 E92 M3 Individual LSB and Rust Brown

King Tut · 01-17-2014, 07:42 PM

I was lucky enough to purchase this car from @ROB_S2K, and I have begun to make it my own starting with the Volk TE37SLs in a square 18x10.5 +22 fit with Michelin PSS 275/35/18 tires. I have also ordered a set of Swift springs and E36 M3 bump stops to go on next weekend. On to the pictures:

Comments and questions are always welcome.

Beautiful car but you need to do something about the exhaust tips ASAP, either extend the stock tips out further, get aftermarket ones or get aftermarket exhaust to go with the diffuser.

cyba tips asap!! Such a beautiful color

JEllis · 01-17-2014, 08:35 PM

Took the words out of my mouth, when I saw this for sale I debated selling my car. Best combo in the e9x IMO.

The wheels look horrible on it tho, this beauty deserves at least original TE37's or a nice set of 19" BBS, HRE, or even OEM ZCP's

chich · 01-18-2014, 12:00 PM

Congrats! Love the rust brown

Thanks for your opinion. How are those square ZCPs and wrong size tire working out for you? By the way I had original 19" TE37s on my first E92 M3 (yes that was my car):

This car also came with the OEM ZCPs that every other BMW out there has in some kind of variation either real or knock off:

I did not want 19" wheels. I wanted the best performing, lightest, and best value wheel out there and that is why I purchased the wheels I purchased. The 275/35/18 comes in tons of tire choices and is the perfect tire for the track in my opinion.

Ironic statement coming from someone who opted for a square setup as well. Running a 275 on a 10.5" rim and not even close to the factory ratio. Im sure the megan racing exhaust you will run, will suit the JDM car you are building.

Thanks for your opinion. Why would I care about the factory ratio? The 275/35/18 is only .2" diameter smaller in the front and .7" diameter smaller in the rear. The smaller overall diameter helps acceleration. I believe the 10.5 inch rim is the best size for the 275 width PSS, and I am far from the only person to believe that. Megan exhaust joke eh, classy. I have modified plenty of cars and never used a Megan product. Here are a couple:

Turbo BRZ with Greddy Evo3 exhaust:

Cayman R with Fabspeed Race exhaust:

I throw on a set of Volks, which are one of the most popular wheels on this car, in a square setup with 275s and suddenly I am building a JDM car eh. I am sure my SpecE30 is a JDM car as well because I have Kosei K1s:

the drop will set it off nicely.
