Nice looking car, I am in a group of car nuts over here who are retired and we meet for coffee, dinner’s etc and a monthly drive somewhere. I’m the only Z4 owner but we all share a love of cars (we are mostly ex racer’s as well) and appreciate the cameradie we have.

Thanks. I’ve only had it since October but I’m enjoying the experience. Your group sounds like good fun and I guess the weather is decent at this time of year. We’ll be taking the E89 to France for July and August so will be able to enjoy the quiet and good driving roads round Beaulieu-sur-Dordogne where we stay for the summer.

Morning Homer,
Thanks! :thumbsup:
They're the BMW 260M wheels, which are extremely close to the 219M alloys. They originally were designed by Cromodora for the E92 M3, but most people specked their cars up with the 19" alloys from new. That meant these became surplus to requirement and making them a very rare alloy.
I initially saw them on the Beedub's car and wanted an alternative to the 19" CSLs.
I believe they suit the car so well, and look and look like they were the intended design right from the very start!
Tyre sizes are 235/40/18 and 265/35/18.

Cheers, Neilson. They suit the e86 so well, any idea if they’d fit a non M

To be honest, I'm not sure. I doubt it though as these were initially made for the E92 M3, which wouldn't fit a standard E92. Here's the details though...
ET - 29 / 23
Rears 9.5J
Fronts 8.5J
They'll definitely stick out too far on the rears I believe, but I read somewhere that you'd need to purchase 4 front wheels and leave the rears if putting straight on the 3.0 Si.
It's definitely worth throwing open on the forum as they're are a lot of experts on here who could answer this before any financial outlay! :thumbsup: :wink:
