E9x M3 Boot Spoiler
Tail Light Clear bit Laminx'd in red, gives it the Facelift look.

Wow! Those wheels really make a huge difference to the car!! They are just fitted as normal, no spacers?

Thanks bud...

Yep, no spacers or machining or anything. Fitted straight onto the car. The only thing i changed from the M3 spec, was the tyre width.

Tastefully done! Congrats. The Laminx on the rear makes a big difference to the stock lights. You didn't consider OEM Blacklines?

Thanks, i am considering black lines, im going to try one more trick and see how that comes out before going black lines.

Also, spent a bit on the car in the last 2 weeks, so will mod slowly now!!

Ah, I see now that the rears are stretched a bit. What are the tyre sizes that you fitted front and rear?

Yeah, i love stretch. Fronts are 225/40 18 and rears are 235/40 18.

 

[Philip Foglar]

Was the stretch more for preference or to prevent touching the wheel arches?

I could have went 245, but they would have made the rim look smaller. Its not a hectic stretch, its perfect. So, preferred decision!

Okay. Not usually a fan of stretched tyres, but it really does work on the E90! :thumbs:

 

[Arbee]

Guess it works well also, theres nothing wrong with a little bit of stretch, i guess if i used 225's at the back i would be asking for trouble.

I had a full load in the car this weekend, and no touching at all. Ride is as stock as can be.

 

[Philip Foglar]

At this stage I am planning to get the 18" Ellipsoids and stick normal tyres on, but the offset on the rear is still making the rear wheels a bit too hidden for my liking, and I am not keen on spacers as mentioned above. Also have to decide if I want to keep the car "standard" looking or customizing...

Nice car :thumbs:

 

[herr bmw]

looking good:thumbs:

can i ask why you didnt go for 255/35/18 on the rear?

 

[e46monk3y]

That stance is perfect! :in-love: WOW! Very very very nice Arbee! Small subtle mods go a huge way to creating a unique look, I reckon some BMWP stripes on the sides would just set that off! :evilish:

Now you're making me sad, those wheels are just the business! How I wish they could fit on mine :disapointed:
