Here are a few pics I took of my car the other day. Please ignore the fact my tow hook cover is missing.... instead of paying for the cover plus paint id rather just wait untill I upgrade. |

just a few suggestions i have, paint your wheel bolts gloss black so they flush in with the black theme, clean up the break cylinders so they are nice and shiny

My sig has my setup. FYI, I tried 245/35 front and 265/35 rear (M3 fitment) and with Michelin PSS, they rubbed even after rolling the rear. The front rubbed the fender liner when turning, but never from suspension compression. It was annoying for a $50k car (no offense) so I switched to standard sizes, 235/35 front and 265/35 rear. I have room and just might test out a 10mm spacer front and rear, making it 19x9 +25 front and 19x10 +28 rear... in theory, it will rub a little at current camber settings of -1.3 front and -1.6 rear, but I can go -2.0 rear and -1.5 front in hopes of making it work.
I'm actually testing things out for another wheel order. I've only had these for about 7500 miles and they're great, but I'm sort of excited about lightweight wheels and these are 25.5lbs front and 27.5lbs rear. Lighter than most stock rims, but ARC-8's alone can knock off 5 lbs per front and 7 lbs per rear, which will be noticeable. They are great looking wheels, but a little busy from the front or back since the concavity doesn't start until mid-way down the spoke. Also, my right rear has a pinhole leak and its been a PAIN to get AG to replace it. When they have one in stock, I can't get down there, and when I'm available and contact them, no reply. FYI, this is my third set. I had an identical set two years ago on a pre-lci, and then an 18" set on the same car (which looked tough with fat 245/275 PSS tires). Of all the sets, the 18" set was my favorite for ride comfort and looks. Love the meaty tire look. |

I saw a black 335 downtown today and swore it had a clear reflector up front but definitely not running 359's. Looks good! We should go for a drive one weekend. |

Here is a side shot of my Vermillion Red e92 335i with AG 359s. I love the look of these and get asked constantly if my car is an M3.

Looks great Do you think you would have any issues with this setup if you were lowered?

I just lowered my car the other day on coils and no issues! Will actually be getting a spacer for the rear.
