Looks the nuts! Any issues with clearance on speed bumps etc? Looks a quite low from the pics.

What kind of tyre pressures should I be running with my 19's?

Tyre sizes are...

265/35/19
225/35/19

End of next month as its MOT time and my 17's are running low on tred. I cant wait as the Bridgestones are truly terrifying with tramlining and cold weather. I just wanted to hold off as long as possible with winter etc.

Then i will order and fit the Eibachs.

What pressures did you run yours at? Looking over the internet 32/35 seems favored.

:lol: If you have no issues then I definitely won't.

CAN WE SEE YOUR CAR WITH CSL NOW ?

Does real OEM CSL alloys fit an e86 3.0 csi?
Anyone can testify?

Bit of revival with the thread.



I'm pretty sure the offsets of genuine CSL wheels are no good for E85/86 Si, I can't quite remember what they are but I think you need spacers on the front and there a bit pokey on the rears.

Although many people have fitted 19s to the 3.0si with no issues. It may be worth giving this a watch before you decide to put your hard earned cash down on a set.

Not necessarily caused by just going to 19's. The tyres were 40mm wider for a start which will have significantly more rolling resistance and the 19's he put on were almost 5Kg heavier!!
