BBS RS-GT for e90 on a e93 M3 as winters?

peanuboy · 11-14-2010, 09:54 AM

Hello everybody,

Got a rather specific question hope you wheels/tires guru can give me some pointers. for my new M3 coming Tuesday.

I am thinking of reusing the rims on my 335, BBS RS-GT 19x8 with 35mm offset all around; and slapping some 235/35/19 Dunlop Winter Sport 3D; to help with the stance, I'd put 15mm H&Rs on the rear and MAY put some 10mm on fronts.... essentially making the fronts 25mm and rears 20mm

Will this work?

Thanks in advance

woah let me get this straight, you want to use BBS rims as winter rims??? w/ road salt and all that stuff?

wow that is insane ... I will ship you or drive to you my 189s and a set of Winter Sports if you give me your BBS wheels

please don't use your BBS wheels as winters unless they are trashed, use your stock M3 wheels

My rs-gt have seen better days. As I won't sat they are trashed but there a some curb rashes on them; and they are so much narrower, 19x8 all around, than the stock m3 19s.

I found a set of rather new Dunlop ws 3d 235 35 19 and they'd fit perfectly on the bbs, but how about the car? I am hoping spacers can make the wheels stick out more therefore improve the stance.

I also heard about the 3% limit; I did a before/after using tirerack's calculator and the difference after is less than 1%, does that mean I am good?
