Talking 359M M3 ZCP Wheels Gunmetal Steel Pearlescent on BSM E90 - Sorry, No Stretched Tires!

You might have been following this thread... I'm happy to show you the M3 ZCP wheels on my E90! Photos taken with my Evo so don't expect the best quality.

Some notes:
  • Wheels are 19x9 ET31, 19x10 ET25
  • Tires are Bridgestone RE-11 245/35/19 and 275/30/19.
  • Fenders rolled (they slightly flared out too).
  • Car is dropped on Bilstein PSS9, pretty low. I had to raise the rear up a little bit from my previous setting to mitigate rubbing on bumps and inclines.
  • I need to get a tiny bit of negative camber dialed in to clear the little plastic protrusion where the rear fender and bumper meet.
  • Wheel color is "gunmetal steel pearlescent" powder coat.
  • The set-up is very flush. Perfect. The rears are an issue but not a big deal.
  • Don't hassle me about center caps. They'll go on tomorrow.


Let's start with a few extreme shots showing full compression on the right rear.









Fronts don't rub, even at full lock.





















Very close to the oil cooler grill but it still clears!



























Yes, the 275/30/19 tucks on full compression! Only issue is the corner where the bumper meets the fender. Some negative camber will get rid of the rubbing. I'm sure the plastic can be trimmed also. I just need maybe 1-2 mm of clearance.
