I take it you didn't run spacers on the front Nords, but did you run spacers on rear?

Nope, std M3 18"s rears all round and bolted straight on using std bolts. No dramas with them and lowered Intrax...

Does this one show it better?

That's COOL m8

I'm only going to be using mine on the track too and the Standard 19 Cup wheels with GY F1 for wet track & road use

Your SG CSL look fantastically PHAT with those black 18" M3 rears all round

THANX for the pix bud

Yep, if they are on photobucket, it's easy to drag them back up again. It's the only set of photographer shots I have bought after a car trackday...

Nords forgets to mention he has Intrax and adjustable camber plates

I have used the dunlop for the last 4+ years, they are fantastic. I have run them on BBS rims and for the last 3ish years OZ ultraleggra 18', 265 all round, (which look stunning in gunmetal against black car) Intrax and -3 deg all round suit the tyre and the car handling is superb.

As already mentioned Toyo's dont work. I tried really hard years ago to set the car up on these and it felt awful, I used 18' E46 M3 alloys with 235/265 combo, no bite on turn in at all, went off very quickly, they are good on light cars only.

For me, the only 2 tyres to use are cups and dunlops. The price of the new DZ03 is eye watering but i honestly believe it is a step ahead of the cup, it will also last longer, if you can afford/justify it, buy them.

There are deals to be had on 285 (not 265) DZ03's so if anyone is buying new 18' rims think about this, maybe 10' wide, I ran these and sold them to a forum member a few years back.

Other tyres to consider are the Avon ZZR, avaliable in 265 and also Kumho V70. A curve ball tyre is also the Federal SS595RS, may not appeal to tyre snobs but I have experinced this on a E36 track car and they work.....and last.
