Beautiful Weather For Some M3 Pix

Mine is an '08 Interlagos Blue

Here she is wearing the 18" track wheels wiht the fat Michelins...which do fit perfectly!

F: 265/35/18
R: 295/30/18

The car drives sooo much nicer with these lighter wheels / tires. Bohth Handling and braking feel better with the lighter wheels and tires. Losing unsprung weight is a good thing.

C'mon spring!!

I went with a square setup on the wheels to ensure max flexibility on tire sizes.

So these wheels are 18" x 10" all around

And as an alternative I have tried these wheels wiht 275 width RA1 tires (all around) and that fit fine as well.

Flexibiliyt is a good thing...
