I had these wheels put on today. They are the new OEM 19" wheels for the M3 competition package. To get ready for the new wheels a thorough detailing using EX topped with Souveran paste was in order. The wheels were thoroughly Klassed. The tires are Toyo T1S with 245/35/19 in front and 275/30/19 in the rear. I am really happy with this combination.

Gorgeous!
Congrads.
Are you keeping the old wheels for winter, or did you get rid of `em?

I`m keeping the old wheels for now, but not sure when I`d use them. We really don`t have much snow here in Seattle, and if we do I won`t drive the M3 in it anyway.

I really love the current body M3`s. I think BMW just about got it as PERFECT as you can get it this time around. The stance of that car is perfect and it is such a HOT lookin` bodystyle. Right on man, your car looks great. I think the SMG tranny is pretty amazing too, but I think if I were in the market, I would get one with 3 pedals (just old fashioned, I guess). Can ya tell that I like that car a little bit. :up

awesome car + awesome wheels! :D
i agree with way2slow - e46 m3`s are the pinnicle of perfection!
i saw a new E90 330C - not a fan... like a smaller 5series :(...
btw... i`m not a fan of parking near disabled car parks, just too much chance of the door ding! (mind you i don`t park near anything...)
*edit* - unless your were there for photo purposes only ;)

Very nice car!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I personally wish the wheels had lips :(
BUT, it is your car and your money so congratulation is in order.

Gorgeous wheels!
And they look like there is enough room between the spokes to make cleaning doable...

Those wheels look beautiful on your car!
Glad to see BMW bring these wheels over from the CSL.
Looking good:up

Wow, those rims look really good. Your car seems to sit a little low, is your car lowered?

I have not lowered the car. The only mods I have made is a new audio system, window tinting, and these wheels which are OEM wheels. I think (hope) I am done.

Carl...looking good. I somehow missed the post over on m3forum so glad I got to see them here. Are those the ZCP wheels or CSL wheels?
