I honestly think its the people running very aggresive setup's on 20" wheels that have the camber problems and when they do, they need the plates and adjustable camber arms. I'm sticking with the 19" size and probably won't have much of a problem. I'm just worried about falling into a money pit because I want this car to be comfortable enough for full year driving (getting me through NY winters) and get me through the next couple years. Then i'll get something that I can dedicate as a "fun weekend" car and then have a commuter that gets 40+ mpg lol.
so many new cars, so little money. Time to win the lottery.

yeah good call, I think anyone trying to put 20's on any kind sedan/coupe thats not meant to have 20's will have issues. Yours should probably be okay

I actual like the V10 M5/M6 cars better than the newer ones. Call me crazy but they look more unique and sound like an F1 car with the right exhaust haha.

I'm personally counting down the days to the new corvette.

You should fill it up and see how long it takes for the air to go down again.

Cool cool. Wonder how you ended up with F10 M5 style wheels? Those are OEM replicas.

Also, noticed you liked another members 197 wheels, which are OEM.

But, it was worth a try

Thanks!

Good points. I should have clarified anything that normally comes oem on a 3 series, and i never said I didnt like them just that I dont plan on putting them on my car, too many other options. I also have a set of oem 162's im trying to get rid of, interested?

Nice, m6 are sweet. or an e60 m5 gotta love that v10.
Oh yea man. Those v10's r sweet but they are outdated. I am driving an outdated m3 right now and would def love to get into something newer. Never liked the look of e60 m5 either plus not into four door cars. Either suv or coupe. Def need something new in tech and the shape of new m6 is jus killer. Lets see how things workout.

I do love the look of the new M6, and I'm sure it will be quick as hell once people start seriously modding them a tune+exhaust would probably work wonders on it since its tt.
