19" arc-8 on AW e90 335i

KiwiRD · 08-07-2017, 10:01 PM

I'm about to go with this exact same set-up on my pre LCI E90. I have a B12 kit with M3 front arms and already have PS4S in 235/35 and 265/30. Just a little worried about the ET20 offset up front but it doesn't sound like it causes any issues. My front ride height isn't as low as the cars on here either, so hopefully will work out.

Anyone worried about the increased positive scrub radius? Has the steering effort increased noticeably?

Great looking combo!

FYI - mine required some trimming in the front where the bumper and fender meet. After I did that, no rubbing at all. Very smooth, good looking combo for my daily!

Both superb looking cars! Did you just trim that little plastic tab thing that joins the bumper and fender? I don't think mine is as low as yours, so I may not have that issue.

I'm hoping I made the right choice in going with the silver for my black car!

I actually took a Dremel to the metal and plastic tabs. I wanted to make sure I cut enough off the first time so I wouldn't have to do it all over again.

You know the saying "you always want what you don't have". In my opinion, the silver looks great on your car!

suspenceful Read on another forum about the engine on your 1er, bummer man hope you have it sorted out. I had my MMP turbos installed a few weeks ago after reading your thread on the 7.5" intercooler im gonna pull the trigger. The AMS street intercooler I have is seriously not cutting it.

love this look. do you have camber plates on the front? I’m wondering if this setup will work on my 335i e92.. without plates
