(E92 Car of the Month - December 2006) -- My ride with BBS LM's

Mark · 11-27-2006, 08:25 AM

Very smooth, perfect offsets, I think this car deserves some glamour shots!

remmib · 11-27-2006, 10:18 AM

Looks great, but it has to be lowered and the rears are sticking out a little too much.

longtran · 11-27-2006, 10:32 AM

damn, a drop will make it look hot. awesome wheels.

i bet if you did a 265 in the rear and rolled the fender and threw on some coilovers (stiffer) you would be fine.

Looks great bro, would like to see a full out photoshoot when these slight problems are fixed.

Do you by any chance know the front offset?

Mr. Smith · 11-27-2006, 01:55 PM

i love the rims, if you lowered that then that would be freakin sweet

Front is 19x.5 et 32 with 245/35/19
Rear is 19x19 et 25 with 275/30/19

I don't think I will go to 265 tires becoz the wheels will stick out more. I am thinking to cut down the offseto et 30...

He is going with a stretched look. The tire is a little smaller width wise, but allows him to run a more aggressive rim while limiting the rubbing on the car.

LM's look great!!!

i think cause he wants too...nice set of wheels...lm's never fail to impress me

jerrygarcia · 11-28-2006, 08:47 AM

damn good looking car, I agree it needs a drop though. Maybe some agressive fender rolling will do the trick.

herbz · 11-28-2006, 10:44 AM

SOMEONE PHOTOSHOP HIS CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!! (with a drop)

i believe this is the first e92 with LM's? gratz

funky_chilli · 11-28-2006, 11:26 AM

enwhykiid · 12-01-2006, 09:04 PM

the bbs look excellent maaad props

canucklion · 12-01-2006, 09:55 PM

absolutely beautiful rims

ase2dais · 12-01-2006, 10:21 PM

love the wheels,
looks like Toyo's T1R, I got them too, they're great... Toyo has a 30days ride guarantee, so you can upgrade the rears at no cost/lost.

... a little drop & maybe short SSK

you are "good to Go!"

Viral · 12-01-2006, 10:39 PM

is your car a non-ZSP? The wheel gap looks way too large....

snook · 12-01-2006, 10:41 PM

for the coupe and sedan....I can confirm fellas that the 10 inch et25 bbs lm's will rub if the car is lowered.....

fender rolling won't help, and adding more than -2 degrees of camber will lead to tire wear....

on the 325, i put them on just for grins...they came off of the e46m3....just to test fit to let RAC know what the correct e92m3 offsets and width's might be....just as i thought, the 10in rears do stick out, and if lowered...rubbbbb a dubbbbbb dubbbbbb..

i've seen folks roll fenders and such, but its gonna take a little less offset in a 10in. wheel to work.

what tire specs were in the rear. i know that if they came off of an e46 m3, u most likely were using 275 in the rear. if u used 265 they wouldnt rub with a fender roll.
