Hi,
I'm selling my M3 hence have these for sale:

Apex EC7 wheels 18x10 all around (front & rear). Satin Black.

http://www.apexraceparts.com/EC-7-18...e-3_p_166.html

It's a perfect fitment for an E92 M3.

Shod with Nitto NT-01 Tires.
275/35/18
http://www.1010tires.com/Tires/Reviews/Nitto/NT01

Tires have about 70% tread left.

I've only used for these for 2 weekends. About 500 miles on them. In awesome condition.

Paid 2800 for the combination new (1500 for wheels + 1300 for tires).
Asking for 1700$ for the entire set.

I'll throw in Tire Rack totes with them.

All 4 tires are 275s? Do they rub up front?

Sorry about the late replies folks! Was out of town. Just got back.

So in order:

1. I personally wouldn't use them for daily driving. They have a bit more road noise than the stock tires. Plus they are softer. So they wont last that long as the stocks. However, the handling is to die for!

2. I'm based in Palo Alto. I can totally ship these. I believe shipping is another ~350$. However I haven't shipped them so I wouldn't know!

3. Yes all 4 tires are the same. 275/35/18's.

4. Rubbing: I've heard from a few folks that at full lock there is slight rubbing against the guard (full lock being the steering wheel fully turned one way or the other). However, I personally haven't noticed any.

Noticed in your mod list that you are running 275/35 as well with ZCP package. Is that front and rear? Any issues with rubbing?

Novice here looking for my first set of track tires. Its hard to tell from the pics, but arent these directional tires. The tread pattern appears to be the same on all four.

Hey Track Junkie,
Welcome! These were my first set of track tires too. After looking around a lot, and asking folks at NASA and Trackmasters, I got this combo. It seems very popular.
These tires are not directional. And its the same 4 tires. I went with this square setup to get more turn in, and the M3 behaves beautifully with this setup. No excess understeer like the stock setup. It turns very well.

As for rubbing: I've heard from a few folks that at full lock there is slight rubbing against the guard (full lock being the steering wheel fully turned one way or the other). However, I personally haven't noticed any. Generally you would only do full lock when parking. I don't use tires for getting groceries, so am good there .

^ what he said. i have no suspension mods. no rubbing except for full lock. if you're going to track, i highly recommend going square with ZIIs.
