I'm currently the lucky owner of a CSL and have two sets of alloys for the car, one with the cup tyres on and one with road tyres (michelin ps2s) I'm just wondering if anyone knows whether the CSL alloys ive got will fit on the new M3 because i'm thinking about trading in the CSL in the next few weeks and I'd definately be wanting to put the CSL alloys on the new M3

Im not sure mate, and im not sure it will suit the look of the E92 M3! Please prove me wrong with some pictures when you get round to it!

E92 M3 runs 81/2JX19 ET:29 front and 91/2JX19 ET:23 rear, your wheels are
8JX19 ET:47 front and 91/2JX19 ET:27 rear, so fronts will need a 20mm (approx. as the OE wheel is half inch wider)hubcentric spacer, the rears may go on as there is a 4mm difference in offset, depends on how close the original whhel is to the inside edge or the rear arch, but worst case the hub of the wheel will need machining down by this amount if the wheel will stand it.

Not sure how a CSL will look without them either?

Sounds like its possible but maybe a bit dangerous, will give it a go just for interest (and carlos') sake! (but don't think i'm gonna be driving around any tracks on them)
