During the 2 years of ownership of my G80 M3 Competition, I was always casually reading up on similar vehicles. At the end of the day, I wanted something that stirred me like my old manual E90 M3 did years ago. I have been an M car guy most of my adult life. But IMO, as the M division...

This reminds me of the time when we all received a message a few months ago that one or all of our tires were either low or flat. Pure panic mode for many of us. Glitch in the matrix.

Thanks! Correct, that spec with factory tires. And don’t mind at all!

What’s the deal with the TPC? Assuming it’s a specific compound similar to the M car star compound?

Not yet. I do have them packaged up and weighed. So I can easily get ballpark quote. I also updated my FS thread to $1400.

Another price drop. $1400 takes them. Boxed up and ready to ship. Willing to split shipping. Happy new year.

Installed yesterday. Fitment is great and the quality of the weave is comparable to high end carbon fiber. Step drill bit used to create 15mm outboard holes to use the GM retainers. Also widened the holes next to those with a dremel to enable the spoiler to drop down smoothly. I had to apply...

Wow what a spec!

2x 5BWs.

still available.

On a 5BW, but the VS5RS are such a perfectly designed wheel. Reminds of the BBS FIR. I purchased these during the BF sale, received them within a week.

Most definitely. Primarily in how the car feels over imperfections. Not good or bad, just different. Thanks! Yes, same widths and diameters, just swapped factory tires over to these. No spacers. 19x10 +20, 19x11 +44.

Haha appreciate it! IMO, the BW (and the V2, V3) wears black on black so well. I was skeptical before I installed them, but I’m a believer now. The car has even more presence.. in a menacing, yet sophisticated way.

You’re welcome! And absolutely, I’ll add some more pics to this thread.

Finally got around to weighing the factory dark graphite wheels after installing Apex wheels. I know I’ve seen these numbers at random places around the site, so this is what I got on a decent scale: 19x10: 28.8 lbs 19x11: 28.5 Odd that the fronts are heavier. Weight savings with the Apex...

Spot on. I feel that it’s somewhat the same story for the 5BW. Majority of people want BMWs and Audis, to roll with the sheep on instagram. Validation from “enthusiasts”, or something like that. The BWs are wolves in sheep’s clothing. I’ve owned a variety of sports cars, including 2x M3s, and...

Sold.

Exhibition of Speed front splitter, awesome alternative for us that didn’t get the carbon packages. Great fitment and really finishes off the front end.

Sucks, and weird situation. Reason why I avoid the dealer. Free first oil change.. No thanks. I’m paying for that myself and doing it.
