good rim and tire set up.

Just got the HR coilover kit put on, what would be a good wheel/tire set up given my recent suspension mods w/o rubbing? Im big fan of the csl style wheels in gunmetal. I have a montego blue 1er keep in mind.


Thanks,

David

About Forgestar Wheels:
Forgestar uses the best methods of forging and casting methods both in the same wheel. This is called Flow Form Casting, and is used by companies such as BBS and Enkei. These wheels are made to order and can be made to fit your BMW with a large range of offsets.

Flow Form Casting is a production procedure that turns the wheel (or rim section) over a special mandrel and three hydraulic rollers using tremendous pressure. The pressure and turning then force the rim area to form against the mandrel, creating the shape and width of the rim. During Flow Forming, the rim actually "flows" down to create the full rim width. During Flow Forming, pressure applied to the cast rim actually changes its mechanical properties, so its strength and impact values become similar to those of a forged rim. That translates to up to 15% less weight when compared to a standard cast wheel.

Weight specs:
  • 18x8.5 ET48 - 17.6 Lbs.
  • 18x9.5 ET48 - 18.4 Lbs.
  • 18x10 ET42 - 18.2 Lbs.
  • 18x12 ET68 - 20.0 Lbs.

Wheel Sizes and Offsets:
  • 18x8.5 offsets from +26 to +50
  • 18x9.0 offsets from +20 to +55
  • 18x9.5 offsets from +26 to +60
  • 18x10.0 offsets from +16 to +42
  • 18x11.0 offsets from +23 to +55
  • 18x12.0 offsets from +36 to +68
