Happy Birthday car.


She does look good with the new shoes. Maybe use a 15mm spacer. should give it a better stance.

looks nice, but get the correct rear width and offset

they look lost under those arches

+1 absolutely. Surprised that you are running a 10mm spacer already and it is still pretty far inside. One can see that it is a different rear wheel which is most likely broader but I think that the offset wasn't right for the M3 at all. Perfect offset for this car is ET25 all round with 8.5J and 9.5J wheels. You would have to play with your spacer sizing to get it right.

Im surprised Moranor hasn't jumped in yet to sort out the spacer issue...:fencelook:
On the rear a 20mm spacer will push it out enough, front looks OK as you still want to drive it on SA roads.

Most definitely the hottest wheel ever, looks brilliant on any BMW model and is my personal favourite.:bravo:

:fencelook: but why are hiding the rears under your fenders

Thanks for the feedback. 20mm spacer is on order. Zaki did not have long enough bolts so we went with 10mm.

Will post once I have the 20mm.....
