I am stock ride height and stock camber settings, I think that is the difference, mine rub with no fender work so I had to do a slight roll

Waiting for front tyres to go bald to swap over to 225/45 17, the current 215/40 17 makes the car look abit high and I get issues with speed humps being a 40 profile.

Specs:
Rays Eng. Volk Racing TE37 Diamond Black
F: 17x9 +12 - 215/40/17 (waiting on 225/45/17)
R: 18x9.5 +22 - 255/35/18 (had 255/40/18 prev. But scrubbed against the bolt holding splash guard in place.)

So a friend of mine just bought a set of TE37SL for his E92 M3 but has changed his mind and wanted to see if I'm interested.

The specs are:

19x9.5 +21

19x10.5 +22

The only thing I'm worried about are the offsets.

Are these offsets too aggressive? will the wheels stick out like a sore thumb?

i think another thing to worry is your bolt pattern, i think they are 5x120 for bmw... and we are 5x114.3

you are absolutely correct except the newer LS460's have 5x120 but 19's would look super small on them

Yeah that's true I have to double check his bolt pattern.

But generally speaking would you guys think that +21 front and +22 rear is too aggressive?

Would something closer to +32 be better for the ISF?

Love this car and how its coming along.
3IS is starting to grow on me lol

On another note, does anyone know who's car this is and if they have more pics?
I've never seen the Mag Blue TE37SLs on a 3IS yet but it looks fantastic!
