**********s question about CSL reps

I now see that there are three options for staggered CSL reps. The options have a rear offset of 44, 30 and 22. I have to assume that the 30 offset is a bit more aggressive than the 44's, and offers us e9X owners a good look without going with the M3 offset.

... and correct me if I am wrong, but the 30 offset is new. The only previous options were 44 and 22.



Does anyone have pictures to show the concavity of the 30 offset?

I definitely want to run the most aggressive offset possible without having to run spacers, deal with rubbing issues, or anything like that. I just want a perfectly set up 19 inch CSL wheel.

I do not have any plans to lower my car either, so Im hoping that I should be all set with this kind of setup...

i will have an e90 in a week or so. If i go with et22, what would be the lowest you would recommend lowering. I'm guessing the stanard 1.2" or so that is possible with the H&R springs??? thanks

you might need to do some fender rolling with that offset and lowering the vehicle...

I REALLY think that is some inaccurate info. +22 will require some modifications, not "no problem", lol.

That's a more accurate statement. I would think two people from the same store would have non-conflicting info - accurate info.

We got the ET30 Made specifically for the E90/E92/E93 Market, its the ideal 'perfect setup'. The ET45 is sunken in there, and the ET22 was designed for an E46 M3, its far too agressive and will require rolling the fender, sticks out a bit. There are those to have chosen to go this route, but we are specifically bringing in the ET30.

As of the moment we are taking preorders for ET30 fitment, we should be shipping them out around mid-May. I hope that answers your questions.

Nick...Nick...

Listen, it's misleading in the sense that +22 requires modification, and sometimes, even with modification, some still experience rubbing under extreme compression. FACTS.

Also, since several members didn't have problems, nobody else will? And whats with (sold) LOTS and then (sold) SEVERAL?

Fine, H&R Sports, that's one thing, even though I dispute it. You said H&R RACE also. You think you can blanket a statement like that to Race springs?

I could care less what you think in terms of...anything bro, because I have a good amount of experience around cars in general. But others who don't know and thus are depending on the recommendations from the vender, it's irresponsible to say things like that.

Responsible posting please.

from what i've read, majority of members with 22mm rear set-up requires the fender to be rolled or else it will rub.

imho, 30mm set-up for the rear is the best choice.

check out this ride. it's the 45mm offset wheel with a 15mm spacer, which essentially makes it a 30mm offset. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=56361

Hey everyone,

The new 30 offset is specifically designed for the E90 and E92 setups. It is a perfect fit with the edge of the wheel coming out right to the fender.

The 45 offset is not aggressive enough, leaving the wheel tucked in. The 22 offset is too aggressive, causing fender rolling issues. So we made the 30 offset specifically to solve this problem! (You're welcome)

Any other questions just let me know

Hi Mike,

I am interested in this same setup if you can also provide me a quote.

Thanks!

Mike,

Are these E9x's specific CSL's going to have more concavity to them than the non-M current setup? I will probably be all in for that setup, and wrap them in toyo proxes 4 tires...

I know that you work with tirerack for tires, but they dont carry Toyo Proxes 4's. Otherwise, I would order them through you as well...
