Love it. Can't find these wheels online. Link?

I don't believe RD makes these anymore. They're rare these days. Also consider these in the pic are custom setup

eyanez1230 · 09-02-2018, 01:08 PM

There's just something about those 359's that never gets old and looks great

jaehshim · 09-02-2018, 07:12 PM

359M > all aftermarket wheels for this gen M3

I love JDM TE-37s (esp on Nissans), love CE-28 (on Evo X), love Euro BBS CH (on VAGs), love LM & E88 (on certain BMWs), but if there's one thing about this gen M3 and E46 M3, you do NOT touch the ZCP rims, period.

JJH · 09-02-2018, 07:16 PM

BBS RI-A in 18s

OC ///M · 09-06-2018, 01:24 PM

BBS FI in RKP Spec

wyatth · 09-06-2018, 04:35 PM

I strongly prefer monoblocks these days. I love the 359M (with some mild spacers and 255/275s) but for aftermarket I do like the HRE Fall Line (P43?), BBS FI, and other similarly sporty yet clean wheels.

Longboarder · 09-06-2018, 09:31 PM

There are a lot of awesome wheels out there and in this thread but the 359's are hard to improve upon.

M43S7RO · 09-06-2018, 09:50 PM

I agree that 359s look great, just wish they were available in wider sizes and lower weight.

However, IMO BBS FI & TS-5 edge out the 359.

Thx. Running 255/275 Cup 2's on my stock silver ZCP wheels and 255/275 RE71Rs on my second set of wheels are actually the fake AG359's. Exactly the same except for more aggressive front offset.

Nice. I am running the same set up. Just not feeling how tall the sidewall is on the rear tire. 275/30 would have been perfect. If I have to do it all over again I would go 255/285

Of course Im biased but your car looks perfect!

My next set of tires will be sized 265/30/19 F and 285/30/19 R. Apparently these are a perfect fit on the zcp wheels and have a slightly smaller overall ratio than the 255/35 and 275/35 so should meet your objective. And of course the lateral grip with such a wide tire is also much improved on the track.

Thanks didn't know this was even an option with our wheels. Good to know

Do you know what the weight difference is between the OEM and the AG? I recall it being just about negligible.

I would like to avoid running a spacer up front, that’s a big advantage to the reps. Clearly they’re strong enough to hold up on the track for you.

I think they are the same weight but cant confirm for sure. With tires my AGs feel heavier but thats likely because the RE71Rs on the AGs are a bit heavier than the Cup2's on my ZCPs. I installed these for the track because I can run -3.0 front camber (see pics) and with stock suspension I can "cut" the track and ride up every burm/apex no problem and they havent bent yet and these were someone else's track wheels too I bought them used all beat to hell.
