New BC Forged RS40 Matte Black on my AW M4!

slavearm · 04-02-2015, 11:04 PM

Let me say, I was just looking for some track rims when Eric from Pyspeed contacted me and said hey, get something that doesn't suck. After a little back and forth, I joined the group buy and never looked back. I demanded an 18x10 and 18x11 setup. Here is what the BC Forged and Pyspeed team put together:

RS40s Deep Concave in Matte Black
18x10 +25 Front w/Nitto NT-01 275/35/18
18x11 +35 Rear w/Nitto NT-01 305/35/18 edited

No rubbing, no turning issues, no tracking issue, 100% pure kick ass.

I will say, in afternoon light, Matte Black on Alpine White is a PITA to shoot. Disclaimer done, here are the pics.

Yes... that is a lot of meat.

Looking good. Loving the meaty tires.

AW BMW · 04-02-2015, 11:46 PM

The car looks great sitting on all that meat.

seis-speed · 04-02-2015, 11:49 PM

Those look great for 18" wheels.

JTO24 · 04-03-2015, 06:54 AM

Looks great! Meaty indeed.

-JLT- · 04-03-2015, 06:55 AM

yummy

traction must be awesome with them 305's

chreeno · 04-03-2015, 10:36 AM

looks awesome!

Black Gold · 04-03-2015, 10:53 AM

That's frickin aggressive, dig it

slavearm · 04-03-2015, 11:06 AM

Point of note: Steering feel no longer sucks. I think the stiffer sidewalls and wider tires is what they designed the car on. Because, the steering feel is pretty tasty with this setup.

TeKiZeRo · 04-03-2015, 11:15 AM

Looks great! Just don't snap any axles with the better grip!

m3lover1 · 04-03-2015, 11:21 AM

Looks good!

love the look

mugenap2 · 04-03-2015, 02:36 PM

Looks great, when are you going to lower it?

JNoSol · 04-03-2015, 02:55 PM

I had no idea you could fit 305 tires on 10" wide wheels, it looks great.

You can fit even bigger tires. It'll just make your car look like it's ready to go off-road.

No offense to the OP. Any reason you didn't get proper wheels widths out back?

lpphreakx06 · 04-03-2015, 03:11 PM

Can you take a picture of a side profile but the wheels straighten?

Thanks! Wheels look great.

I did... 18x11 It was a typo. Read it a few times, didn't notice before your post.

I think 305 is about the largest you can go on 10", but it is far from ideal. That is why I went with 11" rears... just need to learn to type.

When they make a very small drop kit that doesn't hork up the suspension. I track my car, so the handling is important to me. Most of the coilovers available drop the car a min of .6 and don't have plates available to allow me to dial in -2.5 to -3 degrees yet.

If they release the Comp Kit, there is a good chance I will just use that setup.
