Autocross Wheels in F Street

Looking at Autocrossing my E90 M3 Competition. I'm curious which wheels you guys recommend and if people run a square set up? Thanks everyone!

Apex wheels are quite popular and provide a lot of options for sizing, color, and offsets. They have cast and forged depending on budget.

Titan 7 is a great wheel in square sizes too, but carries a price premium because they're forged.

Can't run a square setup due to the rules. There's a great F Street thread a couple of pages down that is a good read on setup etc.
Since these cars have been in the class awhile there's plenty of information out there.
If you want to be fancy and lightest weight possible, Forgelines are the way to go. If on a budget Titan 7, Apex, and Bimmerworld wheels are all good options.
Just pay attention to the offsets as there are SCCA rules about the wheel offset limitations as well.

If you want more open options and modifications the car can me made competitive in STU which is the class I ran my car in.

A) if you want to dual-duty track and autocross the car and/or make it more fun, just run it in STU

B) what she said

C) the car might be a less competitive soon if the superponies or various others move down*, so, keep your eyes on those fastracks before you invest much money in an FS-legal setup IMO




*TBD, I think
