New wheels for 335

So I got the hook up at TC motorsports. It needs a slight drop, but I don't want to do it... the car is low already. The rear is good, but the front need to drop about half and inch. I don't get why it is so uneven. I only had half a tank of gas, so that doesn't explain the difference.

I am unsure of the color. I really wanted gunmetal. I may paint them this winter. They are VMR CSL replicas in a hyperblack. 235/35/19 and 265/30/19.

I have to camber the rears as the right rear rubs at 160km/h when going over bumps. I don't want to roll the fender...

It would be much cheaper for you as you are in the US. I had to pay and extra $200 for shipping, etc... to Canada. So you don't want to know what I paid... lol

If $200 was a large % of the overall price then I dont think they were to bad. they were worth it for sure. They look amazing.

Looking good! Im surprised you rub since it looks like youve got a fair amount of fender clearance in the rear. Whats the offset of the rears? Im assuming the wheels are 19x9.5 rear?

19x9.5 +33

265/30/19

I *shouldn't* be rubbing... but I do. kinda pisses me off. I would have gone 275 if I have to roll the fenders anyway.

Is it my imagination, or are the gaps on the left of the car bigger than the right? And, I hope the car wash is a touchless one

+ fu*king ups brokerage fee + duties + tax.... it is going to cost like 30% of the total cost! How come we always get ripoff!

Also, dun re-paint it! It looks hot as is. And I am surprise it rubs too! I am glad I didn't go with the M3 offset, but then now I still dunno when I can have my wheels coming in!

They look terrible. You should've gone with gun metal for sure.

Sell them to me.

All BMWs have that problem. Notice how most of the pics are of the right side of the car? lol

Haha, no. 85th street in front of the Jail. I figured the cops would be out looking for criminals, not sitting in front of the jail trying to keep them in. LOL
