I'm still waiting on the scan files from Track/S. Our 18" Sprint Line wheels appear to clear, though it's by a thin margin from what we've seen so far. Our New Enduro wheels would have identical clearances in this area as well and would be suited to rental track cars as they're built to be much stronger and stiffer. We just released them today, but here's an overview:

Its not really possible if the goal is a rotatable fitment that also doesn't require changes to the rear bodywork/liners. The front and rear of the car have different offset requirements. You could run differential offset wheels (18x10.5 ET25 front, 18x10.5 ET40 rear) but then you lose the option to rotate. The lower offset front fitment that can clear the suspension will require changes to the rear fenders.

For this reason, we tend to prefer the higher offset wheels with spacers in front.

This is going to cost me more money! Id probably upgrade to an 18x11 setup. . Keep reading it's a better wheel for the 295 vs 10.5. Though I'm happy with how the car feels on the 10.5. I need to resist upgrading the knuckles.

What modifications on the rear are required. Spacers aren't a deal breaker for me. No complaints at all from the 25mm fronts.

18x11 +44 et from apex works like a charm in the rear. I run that and a 18x10 +25 for a spacerless staggered setup and it’s been great.

Hello, I am from Germany and would be very interested in the idea of finally being able to ride 18 inch on the 400mm gray brake.

Unfortunately I don't understand exactly how and what I have to do.

Can anyone here help me or put something together so that I can buy the right kit?
As you know, 18 inch tires fit on the rear axle, right ?

Here is my current car.
In my mind I would like to drive the original BMW m2 cs Racing in 10*18 all around

You can send a set of calipers to Track/S and he can mill some material off them.

So you simply mill off excess material, which probably does not reduce the load capacity of the brake.
Can I then continue to use the original BMW brake disk or do I have to use a different one?
That would be great if it is so easy to mill off and fit rims and be happy.

Please tell me exactly how it is ❤️

Can we communicate via WhatsApp or something similar, dismantling and sending would be the smallest problem.
Coming to Spain would also be possible in conjunction with a vacation ☺️ but the next trip is now set for Austria in May ��

Hi, this is 380x36mm discs, if you want run on 140i with 400mm discs you need custom adapters for 2nh calipers.

Don't you have any photos of the different stages of your installation?

140i:


M2C:


From what I see, the main difference between the M2C and the 140i is the hub. So, do we need to change the hub of the 140i with the one from the M2C? Or can we directly install the 6-piston caliper like that?

You only need custom brackets for the calipers, the rest is plug & play, the 140i disc cannot be mounted on the m2, but the m2 disc can be mounted on the 140i

Hello Oleg, I am already in contact with Paragon for my BMW M3 F80. Although I have a carbon ceramic brake and would like to rebuild it. I would like to drive 18x10 et25 and 18x11 et44. According to Paragon, I need 380x36 discs for the front with matching brackets, can you confirm to me that this will fit and what else I need for it? And whether there are the right brackets for what I have in my to do? And what else do I have to change about the rear axle? Saddles should remain, only new discs. Thank you in advance!
