Looking for E46 M3 ZCP-like wheels that are for M2C fitment
Title says it all, but what are currently available wheels that look like the below and have a M2C fitment?
I'm looking for a "classic" silver finish wheel that has more spokes than the current "hot" designs (763 wheel) but not a solid disk of spokes/reinforcement points (788 wheel and some BBS) either.... Any pointers are more than welcome! Thanks! |

Apex EC-7's are about as close as I've seen that come in M2C fitments.

For M2C-specific fitment, the only option from Apex is the EC-7 at the moment. The ARC-8's won't fit-- at least not without some pretty hefty spacers as clearance on the 400mm front brake on the M2C is an issue. If the ARC-8's had fit, I would have picked them up in a heartbeat.
Apex is supposed to release the SM-10 at some point in time, but due to supply chain issues, that's a date yet to be determined. R. Last edited by flybigjet; 01-18-2021 at 09:28 PM.. |

Rear: 19x9.5" ET33 with 265/35-19 tires Available in ARC-8 design only. Front 12mm spacers recommended for flush fitment. Stock Tire sizes, 12mm spacer is what most people run with stock wheels. There is also a square setup but that may require some more work. I myself am very much keeping an eye on the arc 8 bc a few people I know have them on F80 and they look soooo good. |

Remember that wheels that fit the M2 (OG or LCI) probably won't fit the M2C without spacers (which may create their own problems)-- it's all due to the big freakin' brakes that BMW tossed on that puppy. That's the same reason that an 18" will fit an M2 but won't fit an M2C.
Wheels I've seen that fit the M2C (Apex, Titan, etc) with no modification tend to be a half-inch wider w/ front offsets about ET28-29 and rears about ET44-45. That's probably a good baseline to keep in mind. There are other wheels out there that will work, but Titan and Apex are the two that I'm familiar with. Of course, lowering, using conical springs or spacers can change the math significantly. R. Last edited by flybigjet; 01-20-2021 at 10:14 PM.. |

https://www.rayswheels.co.jp/product...g=en&wheel=G16 For M2C spec, the offsets (F: ET23, R: ET34) are 6mm more aggressive than stock so they poke out more and giving a more aggressive stance to the car. Other dimensions though remain the same (F:9J, R:10J, 19 inch) |
