What's everyone planning to do to their M once...

the snow melts?

I'm getting a new set of wheels. Which btw, means my TE37s could be for sale if you are interested.

I'm also waiting for the right springs to arrive. That's all for now.

Get the damn winters off and put the summers on.

I'll just be running stock wheels/rims this summer. I like the look of the 19" rims enough I don't see changing those for a long time, if ever.

Hah I can't wait to get my stock rubber back on the road! I love the wheels, and my traction control really hates rolling around with 255s in the back!

How did you come up with your setup?

I'm doing a track/show setup as well and have been doing some research. Are you lowering your car? ET37 is aggressive for the rear for a track setup. It's perfectly flush with a 11 inch wide rim and 295s. Full compression may cause some rubbing. I'm going with 40 at the back and running 295 to give myself a little margin for safety.

I also did some research and was told that 275 is doable on the front, but may rub on full lock. Again, just based on my research. Hence sticking with 265 on 9.5 inch wide rim and ET20.

Not lowering my car as it has to stay stock under the rules that we will be running under.The original spec was 33p from Forgestar with them knowing my tire sizing.I did my own estimating and went to 37 which I am hoping will be ok.275's up front should not be a problem as I already test fit an 18" on the front but had no brake clearance.I ran 275's on my E92 M3's with no rubbing at all.

With ET25 up front. I think you will have no issues with the fender. However, apparently the front suspension assembly is fairly bulky on the F80/82. I'm gonna call some people and verify. I would like to run 275s up front to increase breaking performance and reduce understeer without going to a stickier tire, but don't want any contact with the suspension either.

The key thing is too keep the tire heights close to stock.I ended up going with a 19" setup due to availability of tires with a tread wear of 140 or better again due to the rules.

My proposed setup with be about 7mm taller. You think that's an issue?

I was originally going with C7 Z06 but GM will not build it the way I ordered due to "commodity restrictions" which means waiting till 2016 to get the car that I ordered.Not sure when the GT4 will arrive as the dealers do not have allotments yet so the plan is to use the M4 till that happens.At that point I will make a decision about keeping the M4 as a DD or get something else for that purpose.By the way GM can go screw themselves!
