…developed Original Equipment applications in which the rim widths are not within the tire's original approved rim width range. For example: 1995 BMW M3 combined 235/40R17 sized tires on 17x7.5" rims (which are 0.5" less than the narrowest 8.0" wide rim listed for the size). Corvette C3 models…
While most 2012 BMW cars and SUVs are equipped with run-flat tires, the M3, M5 and new M6 are all equipped with non-run-flat tires to maximize performance. While the M3 and the most recent M5 use the Pilot Sport PS2, BMW has elected to equip the 2013 M6 with Michelin's Pilot Super Sport…
It's late in the snow season, but if you need some snow traction for your M3 we have a Winter / Snow Tire & Wheel Package for you. The M3 comes with a staggered wheel and tire set up, but for the winter it's best to downsize. Tire Rack recommends a 235/40-18 tire size on the front and rear for…
The Competition Package (ZCP) for the BMW M3 includes 19" wheels that are a half-inch wider than the standard options. We commonly recommend 235/35R19 on the front and 255/35R19 on the rear for a typical M3 Winter / Snow Tire & Wheel Package, but those sizes will give a stretched look on…
My brother Tom was pretty happy with his E92 M3 until I went to South Carolina to drive the 2015 M3 and 2015 M4. Once he heard me rave about the F82 M4, he jumped on BMW's website to build his new 2015 M4. He'll soon need snow tires for his new vehicle. Winter / Snow Tire Category As…
The E90 M3 is the 2008-2013 generation of the legendary BMW M3. As a true performance vehicle, it comes equipped with Max Performance Summer tires. These are excellent for the warmer months, but not so good when it comes to cold and snowy weather. If you want to drive your M3 year-round, you will…
1993 BMW 325is, 1996 BMW 328is, 2002 BMW M3, 2006 BMW M5 and finally the 2008 BMW M3 Convertible - yes my brother likes his BMW's. Equipped with 245/35-19 Michelin Pilot Sport PS2's on the front and 265/35-19 on the rear, it was time to replace the tires on his latest vehicle. Since the rear tires…
For club racers, I have found the TRMotorsport C2 and the Kosei K1 Racing wheels work really well on the E36 M3 cars. They are both very light -- the C2 at 19 lbs. and the K1 at 16.8 lbs. Reducing unsprung weight and getting to the same size wheel and tire on all four corners is a good thing for…
…upgraded your vehicle to a new set of wheels, then you may need to upgrade your tires. Let's say you drive a 2008 BMW M3 coupe with 20" Breyton Race CS wheels, you will probably need M3 tires in the following sizes: • Front: 255/30ZR-20 • Back: 275/30ZR-20 As a result, you might like…
The late model BMW M3 comes equipped with a sport suspension system optimized for aggressive street driving. For drivers looking for improved track performance and the flexibility to adjust for reasonable street manners, upgrading to a fully adjustable coil-over kit is a great solution. A coil-over…
The Sport Edition A7 is one of the most practical wheels available for the new M3. They are a direct bolt-on with OEM lugs, and can accept an original BMW cap, or the included Sport Edition cap.An affordable option, current prices are $130 per wheel or less depending on the size. Prices are always…
…package. They are a direct fit with no spacer. They will even use the original bolts and can accept a BMW cap. I like this wheel so much, that I used it for three winters on my previous BMW. Though the Sport Edition A7 is the most common 18" winter wheel, there are a few alternatives that…
Just got back from a great day in South Carolina at the BMW Performance Driving center. I have to say that after getting behind the wheel of the 135i, 335i and amazing M3, I am impressed beyond belief! The driving school featured the (relatively) new Dunlop Direzza Z1 Star Spec, and even the…
The tire works well with BMW 325 suspension. Not too stiff or too soft. Good traction all around, in snow/wet/ice. Steering feel is good too considering it%27s a winter tire. It feels like a good all-season tire on dry and wet with much better traction in snow and ice.
