Wheel identification

[cudzich09]

Can someone help me identify the wheels on the car ? [staggered setup, 19s] e90 m3 comp?

I am trying to figure out if 996 brake kit will clear, but the data collected in other threads state nothing will clear without spacers (CSL or ZCP).
Any suggestions? Something similar in terms of visuals, 18s for smoother ride and brake clearance. Thanks

Yeah those look like style 359M wheels. Not sure about the 996 brakes though.

Ok so based on a post in a different forum on e92 running the 359m wheels, the 996 brake should clear.

Is anyone able to verify this personally?

a second possibility, less likely, as an alternative to the 996 brakes is 6 piston C05 z06 corvette kit.

Reason why I’m even considering the set up is because a full rebuild of 996 kit [calipers, bracket, lines, pads, CSL rotors, rebuild kit, misc..] sets me back $2k.

I’m considering z06 and in the rear Brembo, since it’s a direct bolt on. In the end, final price lands around $2k. Any thoughts?

I have VMR 710s which is kinda what those look like.. I am in the process of my brake conversion as well and also very curious to see if they will fit. I think they’re going to.. But I wouldn’t mind it if I have to go wider. This is a really old pic before I did suspension or anything,, But I do think these are the same wheels you posted.. Well never mind I guess that is just a tiny pic.. New iPad haven’t backed it up yet
