Coming from a Shelby GT350, virtually everything is better with the CT4-V BW. The Shelby was a POS .. everything would rattle, break, etc.
Few minor things with the Cadi would be that:
The brake/throttle are staggered in height too much and too close together for anyone who still prefers to...
Other than Apex, anyone have any other vendors they like for wheels that offer them pre-made, rather than 2-3 piece? The 2-3 piece ones are typically in the $2200 range, so I'm curious who else Blackwing owners should be looking at.
Here's what I ended up going with:
18X9" ET31 APEX EC-7 BMW WHEEL
18X9.5" ET45 APEX EC-7R FORGED BMW WHEEL
APEX 3MM BMW SPACER KIT
GM TPMS SENSORS 13538760
COYOTE CENTERING RINGS 72-6690M
In summary, this sets me up with the right size wheels front and rear.
It provides the centering rings...
Front
18x9 28mm Offset 5x120 72.56 Bore
Rear
18x9.5 48mm Offset 5x120 72.56 Bore
You will likely need spacers to get it correct but don't go more than a few mm otherwise you'll run out of thread to tighten them down the 7 turns you need to at 150lbs.
I'm going to order 31mm...
I've been going through every comment on the winter tires thread and I can't seem to find the exact hub bore either. My thought is if I can't get a 28mm front, but I can get a 30mm, I can use a 2mm hub centric spacer to resolve the issue with no detriment to the car and handling. But, I need to...
Were they correct that its 5x120?
I read that the barrel dimensions are important too with the size of the Brembos. Apparently not all 18x9" wheels would fit? Seems like a massive hassle!
I'm trying to figure out the wheel sizes so I can hunt for wheels in a style I like.
I believe the front is 18x8.5 and the rear is 18x9.5? If so, does anyone know the offset and can confirm the bolt pattern?
I assume I would need to order custom wheels ... these are pretty unique.
