my e92 m3 reps are the exact et's you want. et 35 all around 8.5 fr 9.5 rear. sux for me because its a little conservative for an e90.

The M3 reps are not really what I was after. ET33 sounds pretty good. Et40 still too tucked.

I just got CSL hyperblacks and they really look incredible (from the side of the car...profile). But from the rear quarter, the car tends to look like the stock e46 M3...fat and powerful in the rear and a little tucked in in the wheels up front. I guess I could throw in a spacer, but really didn't want to.

BTW, for those who have ever wondered/asked, 19x9.5 with 275's in rear and stock sport susp coupe...rubs quite a bit. Trading into 265's this week, but still concerned because I have KW1's on deck. Pretty sure they will rub with the 265's with et30.

Haven't approached the vendor yet because I really don't know what to ask for yet...not sure of my alternatives or resolutions yet.

Sucks...they are really great looking on the white coupe.

Ever heard of spacers? Determine the ET you want and when you order your wheels buy the corresponding spacers w/wo lug bolts that give you the proper offset. Couldn't be simpler.

What wheel are you looking for?? The CSL's are now in an et33, the M6 are in ET33, there are Hamann race & BBS LMR in an ET35, I think more wheels are making production in the size you want. But are you looking for something in particular?
