Info about CSL replica

So i did plenty of searching but have come to a dead end. I was wondering if it was possible to have a very flush wheel spec for the CSL for a coupe? If you can post pictures as well that would be great.

Thanks

Yes, it is very possible. Our AluFelgen CSL offer the most flushed fitments for the E92. They come in a

19x8.5 ET35 offset and 19x9.5ET30 which is 3-5mm more aggressive than other CSL replicas and sit flush with the fenders with no rubbing. Our CSLs are also low-pressure cast which are stronger and lighter the other CSL replicas which are made using gravity cast. They are also the most concave since their profile are optimized for an offset of 30mm versus a higher offset of 45mm which requires a flatter profile.

Here is a shot on a E92. This shot is using a 235/35/19 and a 265/30/19.



Feel free to PM us for more information.

Cheers,
Matt

Easily done, VMR offers E92 specific offsets for your car to sit flush with the fender. If you like wide, concave and flush for the rear, we can do a 19x10 ET38

10" et38 is still a higher offset than 9.5 et30..

Yep, we don't suggest anything more aggressive unless you want to get into the tire brand and or fender rolling.

19x10ET38 is less aggressive than 19x9.5ET30. The OP purpose is of running as flush as possible. For the front our offset is 5mm more aggressive than VMR so is more flush, and on the rear we make ET30 which is more aggressive than VMRs ET33.

We have installed to this day hundreds of wheels on E92s with 265/30/19 in the rear running 9.5 ET30 and none have required fender rolling.

Here is an example:

This is pretty much as flush as it's going to get... Here's a customer running the CSL style wheels w/ the 19x10" rear:

Jurrian,

That E90Post member is acts238. He is running, according to his post, 12mm spacer in the rear and has commented that he was having rubbing issues as well.

The 19x10 ET38 wheel will be more tucked in than the 19x9.5ET30 wheel, so the 19x9.5ET30 will sit more flush

Here is the thread:

Bump for accurate information to be posted by Vendors

Cheers,
Matt
