maybe the answer is here :
I have bought CSL wheels made by BBS for BMW M3...?
Bobo075 have bought CSL wheels made by BMW for BMW 1M...?
It may be the solution since both wheels are like twins but not made by the same factory...

Does anybody know the ET for these wheels ?

Think you are getting your wheels confused here / CSL wheels were made for the E46 M3 & E46 M3 CSL / both sets had same rears but the M3 had 8j front as opposed to 8.5j front of the M3 CSL model .
The 1M runs a totally different wheel style 359Comp with 9j fronts & 10j rears as standard

i sold my genuine CSL to a chap with a 3.0 after the original buyer pulled put, i helped him fit them to the car too, and to my amazement they did physically fit on the car!! but it looked like a muscle car as the tyres and wheels sat slightly proud at the rear , i looked to me like on full compression you'd get quite abit of rub , but only minor changes needed from what i saw to get them to work. The stock rear fenders aren't rolled so with this done i cant see their being an issue, and it did look awesomely squat! regular driving im not even sure if mods would be needed if caution was used.

Me personally id never modify my car to fit wheels however.

Yes. In pictures where you can't see the wheel rim or the arch, they look good.

Unfortunately, it rubs... And it's oem CSL made by BBS.
thanks for feedback anyway...
