Saw a 10 E92 M3 today with CSL's on it, looked fresh off the forecourt as well. Is it an available option? Does anyone know if same fitment as E46?

Cheers

It's probably the 'competition' edition that they've just released as these come with wheels very similar the the CSL's.

CSL wheels will not fit on an E9X. They are a different offset, by a big margin!

M3 with Competition pack. Basically CSL style alloys, inclusion of EDC with a remapped version of the elctronics and 10mm lower.

BMW have a couple of interesting ones in their HQ in bracknell.

2 unusual metallic colours and wheels that are the same design as the original E46 M3 wheels.

Not totally sure what they are all about.

The colour is Frozen Grey, based on Space Grey.

Was that exact car (colour an spec)

I need those wheels to be available seperate or rep. Any idea on size and offset required for E92?

IIRC the e92 was launched in its "concept form" on CSL's.

You can clearly see these are CSls on the 2007 concept, here's a link where people have put them on.

Sorry, what I should have said is, they don't fit, unless you add spacers and longer bolts. Which in my opinion means that the standard CSL wheels, don't fit an E9X "without modification to the offset". Personally I don't like spacers and longer bolts. I know they are common nowadays, but I just don't like them. I would much rather buy a wheel that bolts straight on with the correct offset, and standard length bolts.

the kit bolts to the hub and then uses standard bolt fitment, good quality engineering
