They look amazing buddy. I'm so in love with your E92, is that bad?

Current Specs are:

F. 18x10 et25
R. 18x11 et25

F. 275/35/18 Rivals
R. 295/35/18 Rivals

Correct?

The Rivals do not come in a 285/35/18, so you would have to run an RS-3 or PSS to get that size. The RS-3 & PSS run more true to size, whereas the Rivals run pretty wide to your avg street tire. The 285/35/18 RS-3 or PSS in combination with a slightly smaller spacer (8mm) should do the trick.

The only downside is you will have mis-matching tires for a while. But, when the front Rivals wear out, you can replace them with 275/35/18 RS-3 or PSS so you have a matching set again.



EDIT: You are going with the PSS I see

LOL Ryan

My current spec on the BBS E05

18x10+25 front 275/35/18
18x11+25 rear 295/35/18

I am taking the 265/35/18 PSS front and 285/35/18 from my EC-7 and installing them on the BBS

I will also be adding a 8MM Spacer I just had made for the rear and hopefully that'll do the trick.

I am also thinking the 11" rim will stretch the rear tire slightly making the side wall slightly rounded.

Its definitely going to be aggressive

My current setup with the apex EC7

18x9.5 +22 265/35/18 ( I am running a 15MM spacer which makes it +7)

18x10.5 +27 285/35/18 ( I am running a 12MM spacer which makes it +15)

Hey man..we spoke last night...wanted to tell you. Get that camber to -2 even -2.5 in the rear and go with a 295/30 or even 285/30 if you can. Along with your spacer...this will work! You want the sidewall for the rear to be a 30...not 35. Team Schirmer runs 18x11 et 21.5 with 295/30's with no spacer but a nice amount of negative camber. Text me if anything man. Good luck.

This is not necessarily true. A 285/30/18 has an overall shorter rolling diameter and is not desired. See below:

265/35/18: 25.3
285/35/18: 25.85

Difference: 0.551

vs.

265/35/18: 25.3
285/30/18: 24.73

Difference: -0.571

The same thing applies for the 275 / 295 combo:

275/35/18: 25.58
295/35/18: 26.13

Difference: 0.551

vs.

275/35/18: 25.58
295/30/18: 24.97

Difference: -0.61


The reason why Schirmer and other European tuners do this is because they like to use the Michelin PS Cup tires, and those tires only come in a 285/30/18 size. With that said, the Schirmer Racing E92's are bada$$

What ever happened to these wheels? Just stumbled upon this thread and have been thinking about triple black E05’s.
