A clear signal: BMW Individual Signal Green M3

The owner of the car already responded but I thought I would add a little info. I am on clubsports but my ride height is a little higher. I have 275/35/18's (Michelin PSS) on 9.5" wheels as well. I have run them at et22 without any rubbing on the fender liners even at full lock. Unfortunately the KW coilover spring showed signs of slight rubbing on the inside (slight black scuff on the spring). I then added a spacer to achieve et15. The inner rubbing was solved but the tire now slightly rubs the liner at full lock. No rubbing during compression while driving. I think the magic offset for a 275mm tire on a 9.5" wheel is probably somewhere in between et22 and et15. I will report back after I experiment one more time with et17. No matter what, negative camber is necessary to run these sizes.

No sir, I had to sell the GT3. Didn't have the $ for both... I had to get something more useful on a daily basis.

How that beautiful lip is still in pristine condition, is beyond me. But I love it. Best in show as far as I was concerned.

I really love everything about this build. The wing looks great assuming the car sees some track time, otherwise it's a bit overkill, but I think you said it sees the track (or will) so I love it!

What's with the crush everyone has on painted reflectors? Honestly I think painted reflectors looks pretty stupid. Either shave the bumper and fill it in, or leave the orange OE reflectors. The little painted bumps look silly, but then again, I'm a function over form guy.

Hahaha... Thanks man!

You should have seen what I had to do to get out of the show!

Dude, those speed humps weren't a joke! Being sooooo low and that lip extending out sure makes things hard. BTW car looks GREAT.

I would have loved to see the before and after pics. I love everything about it except the wing.

There are pics of the car bone stock. I know the wing would not be for everyone but I had to build this car for me.

This car is slightly before my time at IND, but I hope to see it in person before not too long! I am in love with everything about it!
