The tyres seem to wear perfect on the rear at -1 maybe i need to go a bit faster i meet a guy at the ring last year he said with 12mm spacers on the rear thay will rubb unless i have -2 but then he did have a m3 with neon lights under the car and it didnt move from the car park like a lot of them lol

Standard M3 doesn't have rolled arches like CSL, so it will rub with 15mm or even 12mm without enough camber.

I thought m3 had identical shell to CSL

It does, but the rear arches on a standard M3 are not rolled - unlike the CSL.

i am running 18x9.5 volk te37 w/et35 offsets.

i run a tckline coilover suspension (koni shock based) 500/600lb springs. my car is gutted so my cars around 2900lbs, so my car is quite low - 12.5 inches in the front, 12 inches in the rear (from the center of the wheel). i run -3 degrees in the front and -2.6 in the rear

i have rolled rear fenders. i was rubbing like a bitch with 10mm spacers in the rear. i need to dial in WAY more negative camber.

either way, with oem 18s u will be fine.

18x10 ET25 all round for me, I have some camber at the front and at the rear for sure but no idea how much, I have some suspension with springs at the front at back and ride height is 40mm from the floor to the splitter.

Hope that was as helpful as Duncans post

I can ! C = PI X DIAMETER WHERE PI EQUALS 3.1416 GIVE OR TAKE !!!
Just realise that I have a program for calculating RC and offset diffcalled Rubber Fetish !!
.. oh ... and you gave me the fookin Rolling DIAMETER NOT the circumference !

Another Calculator here http://www.brspecialtuning.co.uk/Tyr...calculator.htm

So .... running 24/64-18 slicks will give me a difference of 2mm on the diameter on the rear, sooooo... slightly quicker acceleration Nathan ?
So the front wheels are actually bigger than the rears !

This is correct,well done Rob,but are there any other differences between the Two shells.
