Which size Wheels???

Silly question,

What size wheels should be fitted??

Have noticed that have 2 different sizes on the front.
Near side 8JX19
Off side 81/2JX19

Both rears are the same size 91/2J19 but have different numbers on them??

Cheers

Sounds like you may have an M3 CS wheel on the front left as they are 0.5" narrower than the CSL rims

That's one thing.. but you really need to find out why you have different type of wheels at the front of your car... I think that's more serious though... I will want to find out what's happened to the original wheel... best of luck

Have started the trawl through all the mass of paperwork that came with car and off to the stealerships to see if they can see what was supplied to car.

I was quite surprised to see just how much info BMW dealerships still keep on their system about the cars.

Last time i was at mine i found out that my car was actually supplied with the standard M3 19" chrome wheels and it later had the CSL 'Cup' wheels fitted the following year - thank god! Hate those 'bling' wheels

BMW's official name for them was "M3 CSL" wheels
