Nice to be back on 18s, tyre price difference is massive...

Looks awesome mate. I saw these on a Sepang z4mc once and absolutely loved the look. I have 19' BBS CHs and as much as I love them I often contemplate changing to a set of these in 18s. The ride and handling must be significantly improved. Our Sydney Australia roads are CRAP.

as the car is mostly used of sprint circuits the 19s became redundant really.... so this was a performance move more than anything, to get cheaper tyres and lastly i just got so bored of seeing EVERY other bmw on the street with CSL Reps, it really killed the allure for me, shame because i loved the look.....

ga41 · 11-21-2013, 07:20 AM

Been meaning to post earlier but kept forgetting. Love those wheels mate. While i don't really like them on the M3 (definitely needs 19s for such a big car), the size and shape looks very good for our little sports cars. And don't forget some proper pictures and a detailed review of the Yokohamas! I'm very interested to read how they compare to Michelin Cups.

Beedub · 11-22-2013, 04:21 AM

sould i be fitting these tyres while the cars stored or should i get them fitted next year.... not sure how these will cope with being stood in a cold garage for 4 months....

dubsesd · 11-22-2013, 07:39 AM

I don't think it gets cold enough where u live to make it matter. Just over inflate them to 50 psi. Some soft compound tires strictly state you cannot keep them in temperatures below -10 celsius

David70 · 11-22-2013, 08:07 AM

If the car will be in storage for 4 months why mount them now? Can't see any benefit.

From UK to Cyprus it's something like 150-200 euro with courier service for a set of wheels. If you ship them in a container by boat it's something like 50-70 euro per cubic meter i think. Should be similar for Italy.

Not expansive, but I think that will be a buyer directly in Uk:ALL loves the Csl !!

Beedub · 12-05-2013, 03:36 PM

sold them already :-) got 2200 bucks to....

Beedub · 04-18-2014, 08:12 AM

car is now out of hibernation, i promised better pic with the oem m3 v8 260 (euro) 18s on, the car looks fanatastic with these imo, semi slicks are now on too, the car just feels really good right now tbh, the setup is just working well, i need to really fine tune the alignment for this track season which starts for me in around 3-4 weeks!!

heres some pics anyway for a nice long drive a few days ago, so good to have this out again!!

oem side decal trial happening within 2 weeks too so will update with new pics shortly!!!

dubsesd · 04-18-2014, 08:38 AM
