That one looks like the MXP exhuast that has been discontinued or the Vorsteiner which also was discontinued.

Only 18x10.5 will clear. Unfortunately the narrower sizes will not clear a 380 Brembo.

2015 BMW M4  [6.20]
It’s been a while since we’ve had an BMW E92 M3 come through like this - and honestly, lower mileage cars like this just don’t show up very often anymore.



2011, 6-speed manual, cloth interior, single hump dash… and just ~19K miles.

The M3 had been sitting for quite some time, but the moment it rolled in, it felt like stepping back in time. It’s not often you get the chance to work on something that still feels this “new” - especially with a platform like this that’s already starting to become a modern classic. The goal here wasn’t to reinvent the car. It was simple: bring it back to life, and make it feel the way it always should have - just a bit sharper everywhere.

Before touching anything performance-related, we handled what matters most on these: Rod Bearings.

Full Rod Bearing Service
We've been doing S65 Rod Bearing Services since 2011. If you know the S65, you know. It’s just part of doing things properly. With that taken care of, the foundation is solid and you can actually enjoy the car without second-guessing it.

Keeping It OEM+, Just Done Right
This wasn’t a “throw parts at it” build. Everything that went on the car had a purpose, and more importantly, had to fit the character of the E92. The factory brakes are fine… until you start driving the car the way it begs to be driven. This setup fixes that immediately - better bite, more consistency, and no drama when you lean on it.

Brembo GT 380mm 6-Piston Front Big Brake Kit, Black Finish/Type 3 Rotors
Brembo GT 345mm 4-Piston Rear Big Brake Kit, Black Finish/Type 3 Rotors

Letting the S65 Breathe (and Sound Like It Should)
This is where the personalization really comes through. The Eventuri setup gives the S65 the proper induction sound it always deserved, and paired with the ARH exhaust, it just feels alive.

Eventuri Carbon Plenum + Intake (Matte Finish)
Macht Schnell Underdrive Pulleys
American Racing Headers/Link Pipes/Mufflers

Nitron NTR R3 3-way coilovers (Fast Road setup)
This is probably single-handedly the biggest transformation on the car. The E92 chassis is already great, but the NTR R3 just takes it to another level. More control, more confidence, and still very usable on the street when set up correctly. It doesn’t feel “race car harsh” - just tight and composed.

Wheels & Stance
Simple, clean, and exactly how it should sit. No need to overcomplicate it - just getting the proportions right makes all the difference.

BBS 19x10.0" REV7 - Diamond Silver Finish, 275/35ZR19 Michelin Pilot Sport 4S
BBS 19x9.5" REV7 - Diamond Silver Finish, 255/35R19 Michelin Pilot Sport 4S
Macht Schnell 5mm/12mm Competition Spacers (dialed fitment)

Ultimate Clutch Pedal
One of those things you don’t think about until you drive it. Tightens everything up and makes the car feel more connected.

End Result
This platform is a good reminder of why the E92 M3 still holds up so well. High-revving NA V8, single-hump dash, manual transmission & cloth interior - it’s a combination that’s not coming back. Starting with a car this clean and bringing it up to this level just makes you appreciate it even more.

It genuinely feels like driving a brand-new E92 M3… just sorted the way it should have been from day one. If you’ve got one sitting, or you’re thinking about bringing one back to life, this is exactly the kind of approach we'd recommend - do the fundamentals right, and build around that.

Service
Full Rod Bearing Service
