Following on from last week's post - picked up my M3 last week and loving it so far! Still not got any photos yet...

Have ordered some AP brakes as I will have it on track a few times a year but have just had a panic. How do I find out if I have run flat rims? The options are a kit for 18" OE rims and 19" run flats OR a kit for regular 19" rims.

I blindly ordered the kit for 19" rims.

I really shouldn't be let loose on the Internet sometimes.

If you have standard M3 rims, they are non-runflat so you should be fine.

Yep, they're standard rims. Thanks!

The standard e90 m3 rims are actually 18 inch despite most people having opted for the upgraded 19 inch 220m style wheels.

However both rims are designed for non run flat tyres.
