I'm sorry I was so unclear about the wheel specs in the video, I'm not sure what got over me. That said, the wheel specs are the following: 18x9.5 Et+22 front and 18x10.5 ET+25 rear. Tire size 245 40 front and 275 35 rear.
Vehicle Virals oh if you do the csl the choices I was looking at were status gruppe CSL Style CSL SGT-SCZA and the oem from ecs but also you’d need the diffuser and front lip too to complete the look so I’m eager to see that portion of the build
I’m loving these episodes of your M3 man. I personally have the baby brother to this car which is the E46 325ti 2.5l M54. It’s a very sporty compact with a spicy engine and 5sp manual. It’s my daily and I love driving it! I’ve done upgraded brakes, ecu stage 1 remap with launch control and 2 step, suspension upgrades to stiffer MSports suspension, bright led lights all around, carbon fibre interior trim, custom exhaust from headers back, ZHP weighted leather shift knob upgrade, alcantara shift boot, MSports leather steering wheel, and about to go in for a full paint restoration and kidney grilles blacked out.
TORTUGAH I don’t have much on IG but you can follow me and I’ll be posting some before and after pics of my cars paint restoration/respray. Follow me n_ciranni
I recently did wheels and coilovers on my 325ci. It definitely was a trial and error process with the coilovers as far as ride height. I went to a shop to have the wheels installed along with a laser alignment. I’m currently saving up for the Michelin pss4. I spent about $2500 between the wheels and coilovers along with the alignment and installation. But it’s money well spent
Looks great, only thing I'd mention is you would've gotten better handling with a square setup, (Same size wheels & tires all around) Square setup reduces understeer. 275s square or even 285s square on this car looks absolutely mean. Maybe run this setup for street and get a track setup for future trackdays?
Looks good man. Stance is great too. Although I'd probably raise it just another half inch to eliminate ANY chance of rubbing and increase drive-ability. Project turned out real nice.
A long wait for this vlog,but it was worth it.the e46 looks awesome.I asked you regarding the wrap but now i don't know.The M3 looks awesome with the all black set up.💯💯
Cristian, you are one of my favorite people on RUclips. You're down to earth, joke with the guys at PSI, are passionate about your builds and almost always ask for our opinion even though your opinion is the one that counts. 😉 We appreciate you taking the time to share your experiences with us of your BMW fleet upgrades and cannot wait to see you on the track with a big smile 😀 making woo-hoo! type noises. 😆 Best wishes moving forward brother and always the best wishes for your family! Peace out!
They look insane! i do have a question tho. i was thinking about fitting to my E46 and was wondering if the R10 alloys in those sizes wheel would fit a stand suspension setup and run the CSL size specs? being 235/35 and 265/30 or would i need suspension mods to accomidate the sizes??
Hi, I’m about to buy a 2018 bmw 430i xdrive gran coupe but I will like to know if it’s a good good car? First bmw, I really like it but Im scared of the outcome...if it’s going to brake often, etc Thank!
Nothing wrong w -3 degrees of camber if the toe is straight. Ran -3.5 on our 04 E46 M3 for years without irregular tire wear. Good ride height for performance is in the 13.5" (center hub to fender) range. Wheels look good! But why not a square setup?
Damn it looks sick with the meaty setup. I’m like you I usually prefer the 19’s but I’m starting to lean more towards the meaty setups on performance cars myself.
People dont realize how close the wheel can be to the fender without touching. Cars perfect stance and you really can't tell if its gonna rub in the front without actually driving it
Wheels are sick, fitment looks good for now, but remember that the car will be lower in a few weeks to months cuz the springs compress a bit over time, so u might get rubbing issues lateron. Id lift it up by about 1cm in the rear and 2 in the front, then ur safe and it will still look good Also talking about upgrades... DO THE ROD BEARINGS! Fuck upgrades until uve done that, otherwise ull have no car to upgrade no more
For me personally. I don’t like mine to be slammed. At the end if this video when you showed the fitment I’d like mine to be higher by 1 inch. I like a minor arch gap. But the car looks fire still 🔥
It is not hard to roll them, also get thinner tires too, I have stretched some 255 instead of 275, I have zero problems with rubbing the fender, my car is as low as yours
Love your videos my guy, only thing i dont understand on this one is why you got such a thick sidewall on these rims, kind of looks goofy to me cause the tires are so thick that it doesnt look sporty and takes away from what could have been a beautiful car. im of the mindset a set of rims and tires can make or break a car tho so i probably put more weight into how your wheels look on it overall, anyways love the videos my guy keep them comin
I love the look and the comfort you get from thicker side walls. I'm guessing you like the look of my 335i that has bigger wheels and thinner sidewalls. Thicker tires work better for the track as well.
@@VehicleVirals yeah definitely a little more comfort when driving but part of driving an m3 is looking good doing it ! I would suggest getting a set of track wheels and rims for going to the track if you plan on tracking it much that way you can keep track life and crusin in style life seperate my guy! Love the videos keep em comin would love to post a picture of my car but not sure how to do that. I dont usually comment or do anything on youtube aside from watching videos
roll the fenders otherwise the rear wheels will constantly rub the fenders when your driving at the Freeway on uneven pavement, my rear wheels in my M3 weren’t even as wide as yours and they constantly rubbed the fenders, I had 19x10 in the rear
@@VehicleVirals damn well, good lookin on the reply. If you ever find someone selling the BBS style HMU keep up the hustlin bro you got some fine whips
@@VehicleVirals happy for you dude, coz you can get exotic car with cheap price. In my country just like a dream get this car with cheap price. Even station wagon is very expensive in my country.

Damn that sounds like a dream
Young Car Wiz it is definitely nice to drive. But am really keen for the paint to be done by the end of coming week!
Nathanael Ciranni sounds good bro. Can’t wait to get my drivers license and start modding a 325i e90
Meaty fat tyres (tires) matches the E46's body hella nice!
I agree!
9:58 wtf his finger
double joints haha
Double Jointed
I've never lost a game of mercy 😏
M3 look's amazing love your content on this build. Would like to see you add a CSL intake .think it will really make the car sound amazing .
Yeah we are talking like $3K+ for an oem CSL airbox!
Vehicle Virals so much money just for an air box 😱😱
great videos bro. bought my first bmw yesterday. 05 330Ci ZHP package and your videos helped me decide tremendously! now to start modding >:)

Beautiful ride. It's enjoyable getting to watch it transform. Keep up the good work and know that you are supported.
Looking forward to an update on the E30 engine! I’m interested to see where the build could go 👀
Looks good man. Stance is great too. Although I'd probably raise it just another half inch to eliminate ANY chance of rubbing and increase drive-ability. Project turned out real nice.
E46 will always be mean & it will always be an all time car. Straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Looks amazing dude! I’m excited to see how it turns out. The wheels really set it off.

Awsome build bro. Got the exact same car and colour. Ur videos are inspiring.
Wow 🤩, these wheels look great. Please paint your calipers though 😅
Love your channel bro. Keep up the good work, can’t wait to see this e46 all done
Keep the trunk original , I love those shocks .
You explain everything in such detail 🔥♥️
Completely opposite of my university professors

I need to get my E46 dialed in with new Bushings all the way around!
People dont realize how close the wheel can be to the fender without touching. Cars perfect stance and you really can't tell if its gonna rub in the front without actually driving it
Car is looking amazing man congrats
Fire 🔥 Bro, love the set up!
Damn you got a motivated mechanic doing work at 3AM in the morning
What colour wrap are u thinking of getting on ur e46. I’d personally go for a midnight purple
Wheels are sick, fitment looks good for now, but remember that the car will be lower in a few weeks to months cuz the springs compress a bit over time, so u might get rubbing issues lateron. Id lift it up by about 1cm in the rear and 2 in the front, then ur safe and it will still look good
Also talking about upgrades... DO THE ROD BEARINGS! Fuck upgrades until uve done that, otherwise ull have no car to upgrade no more
I usually only like oem wheels but those are super sick 👌
You should keep that black-orange scheme with the E46, it's pretty nice.
Thought about it, but was afraid it would resemble halloween.
Really nice set of wheels brother 🔥🔥
Wheels are sick! What do you feel about the SM-10s from Apex? Similar wheel
Looks AMAZING, love the wheel choice & color :D
Are you gonna upgrade your Brake discs and brake calipers?
Not at the moment.
Dude your from Rhode Island ? So am I congrats to your channel in subscribing !
Need it wrapped I gotchu! I have an e46 m3 aswell and I’m in Orlando!
It looks really good man when you show thw wheels out i was like naaa they ugly but in the m3 looks amazing
Could go with smaller tires in the front to lessen the camber angle. 245 35 or even 245 30 would give you plenty of room.
Or I can just lift it a bit.
That’s called a demon just look at how aggressive that thing is ...... damn ( too cool)
😂😂
For me personally. I don’t like mine to be slammed. At the end if this video when you showed the fitment I’d like mine to be higher by 1 inch. I like a minor arch gap. But the car looks fire still 🔥
I didn't know eden hazard is a car guy! Enjoying the content hazard, keep it up!
Yes, CSL trunk lid!
It looks super dope bruh
Wheel stud conversion?
Man that looks so sexy, makes me wanna buy an E46!
What performance mods yet?
An appropriate stance.
Keep it up man! builds are looking great!! more n54 content too(;
Damn this beast is looking aggressive 🤩
Great looking wheels but I like my M to have a lip on the offset staggered setup but they look awesome
I like off-road f-150 style fitment on the bmw m3
I knew someone would!
Looks really nice 👌
Amazing video my guy, I will be referencing this build in a few years whenever I end up getting my m3 🥵🥵
What is the total cost of this build and how do you afford it?
A little higher in the front. Where you can see the tires
nice fitment brother really great content
Thanks man 👊🏼
@@VehicleVirals i got a e39 bmw they are great cars, it looks like your your going for a time attack vehicle.
Superb.... good job man.
Looks good bro 👍🏼👊🏼
Rims are sick 🇩🇪🔥😈
nice vid bro
Love the car looks much better with the new wheels
I agree!
Does your top rattle on your e93 near the hinges by the windshield?
No
That looks boss!
Wow. Him saying he is from Rhode Island is something I didn’t know. I live there now
It's rare for me to cross paths with someone that is from there. Such a small state!
Looks soooooo good
That is a good looking machine! Are you really going to wrap it?
Yes
SLAM IT 🔥🔥🔥
Powder coat the calipers on both the e93 and E46
It is not hard to roll them, also get thinner tires too, I have stretched some 255 instead of 275, I have zero problems with rubbing the fender, my car is as low as yours
I'm fine as is with the tires I currently have.
You have to the 2 front coilover the same height
Looking nice

I don't rub in the rear at all and I've driven on every surface with them already. Only concern is the front.
Looks dope!
Glad you think so!
Nice wheels on today's episode.
where can I buy pmc control arms all I see is uk stuff
Fire 🔥🔥🔥
I missed this channel
I've been here!
when they were taking the car forwards and backwards and that was no exhaust. then damn it sounds good
Yeah sounds great until you have to drive it lol
Get BMW centercaps...
How do you get all the money for the builds ?
RUclips :)
Ayyeee an e60 at 14:00 mmmmm noice
orange is also my favourite colour
Right on!
If you can’t go fast in turns, why bother? Dial that suspension in a way you don’t get tire rub but makes the car go faster in the twisties.
I'm gonna lift it a tad bit. But I barely rub at the moment.
Ali (and PSI in general) is to Christian what the Wizard is to Hoovie.
Paint the calipers in blue.
definitely untucked. You need at least an 1" between tire and fender.
do you have any 5x120 OEM wheels you'd sell
Nope
@@VehicleVirals damn well, good lookin on the reply. If you ever find someone selling the BBS style HMU
keep up the hustlin bro you got some fine whips
In my country, this car is so expensive, around $100000!! So that rims much cheaper compare with that car in my country.
I paid $3000 for my car

17:08 beautiful car but that umbrella sticker has to go
Definitely not gonna rub.
