Message: <blockquote data-quote="KL2DC" data-source="post: 219585" data-attributes="member: 3452">Yeah theCHs will be 19x8.5 ET35 front and 19x9.5 ET40 rear (non M3 fitment) Looks like I'll be retaining my 15mm rogue engineering spacers to nett a ET25 at the rear. Should be a good fit :top:  These pics are of the exact same setup (with 15mm spacers). <img src="http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f143/kl2dc/BBSCH2.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f143/kl2dc/BBSCH.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> They lack the cocavity of M3 fitment though (10 inch rear, ET20) but I didn't want to go with the effort of getting the rear fenders rolled. But I must admit, it looks absolutely delicious <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite9" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":eek:" /> <img src="http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f143/kl2dc/dsc0021wx3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />    Weightwise, the CHs are cast not forged (like the LMs). But they're pretty light for a cast wheel (iirc one of the lightest brand name wheels in that price range), the 19x8.5 weighs in at about 11.7kg (the LMs weigh 11.1kg). I am expecting performance to be neither worst nor better than my current 197/RFT setup. We'll see, but general rule of thumb, the decision to go to 19s is purely for cosmetics not performance.</blockquote>
