Genuine Z3M Wheels for sale
Hi, hope mods don't mind me signing up and posting here, selling these wheels on behalf of my brother who doesn't do forums! And thought you guys might be interested in these...
Genuine Z3M 17" wheels taken from a 2001 Coupe.
Widths and offsets -
Fronts are 7.5J with an offset of ET41
Rears are 9J with an offset of ET8
The wheels aren't in bad original condition, got some very light kurb marks as seen in the photos, they are by no means deep, and would not be a problem to get rid of if refurbished.
No buckles, bends, cracks or previous repairs.
As you can also seen in the photos the centre caps and badges are in very good condition!
Now for pictures:
Location: Nr. Exeter in Devon
Price: £350 + £30 P&P
Thanks for looking, if anyone from the south east area is interested i can get them taken to near Epsom in Surrey on the 2nd October.

Not really the point you were making thought was it
What you even doing here ???
Re: Genuine Z3M Wheels for sale
Well......... This is awkward. :/
Logged in on my computer and it does show a price you are correct, and I apologise.
But on my phone....
Still... A friendly sense of humour, and less negativity towards others will help you a lot more on this forum and elsewhere. Yes - I made a mistake, but there's no need to question my participation so abruptly as "What you even doing here ???"
Please don't take offence, and let's leave it here.
Sorry to OP.

Re: Genuine Z3M Wheels for sale
Um, seriously, these will NOT fit a 2.8. The ///M rear axle is much narrower than that of the 2.8, so they would stick out a mile. You could fit them to a 1.9 with wide arches retrofitted as the 1.9 narrowbody axle is a similar width. The fronts ends of all the zeds are the same, so the fronts would fit.
Regarding the missing price when viewed on the phone, what app and phone is this? It does NOT look like this on Tapatalk on Android - I see the price and the images are laid out one below the other, not in a grid. If this is a bug in the new free version of Tapatalk, then please report it to them.
Cheers R.
Edit: They can be made to fit a lowered car provided that you "stretch" the tyres. See yaldens comments below.

I wont open the 'they will fit' debate.
But I do have the rear axle from the 1.9 narrow body that I am breaking available if that helps anyone?

Re: Genuine Z3M Wheels for sale
With the right tyres they'll fit no problem!
Re: Genuine Z3M Wheels for sale
Yalden, would you mind posting a pic showing the rears from the rear so we can see how far the wheel extends.
I had them on my 2.8 with 245 tyres and they exceeded the arch by at least 12mm.

Re: Genuine Z3M Wheels for sale
I love the look of these wheels. If only my 1.9 wasn't narrow bodied id snap these up.

I'm running 205/40/17's on the rear, they're what came on the wheels when I bought them (someone had them on his E36). I'm confident I could get away with a slightly fatter tyre but some degree of stretch is essential!Z3cade wrote:What size tyres are you running with yalden?
Re: Genuine Z3M Wheels for sale
Thanks, yalden. I'm afraid I have a slightly definition of "fit", in that you should be able to run standard suspension and tyres without them failing an MOT, but I have edited my post above to reflect the fact that they can be "made to fit".
Cheers R.

Re: Genuine Z3M Wheels for sale
Looks a good fit to me.. But like you say you have to have the stretch rears.. You could prob get away with 215/40/17 with 205/40/17 on the fronts?

Re: Genuine Z3M Wheels for sale
I agree with Rob, they do 'Fit' ie bolted on but not as originally intended by BMW with the correct size tyre.
This is my 2.8 which came with ///M wheels when I bought it, you can see how much they extend from the line of the rear arch
Another view 9not my car) showing the extended width using ///M rear wheels

Re: Genuine Z3M Wheels for sale
No problem, it's not a look that appeals to everyone and few of us modify our cars to please others. The good thing about this forum is that as a body of enthusiasts we generally welcome all variations in style and taste. My only point here is that if you don't mind stretching tyres, Z3M wheels can be made to fit a non-M without any problems (inc. MOT - I've had no problems over the last 8 years that I've been running cars with stretched tyres).Robert T wrote:Thanks, yalden.

I think you're right, I'd like to try 214/40/17's and check how much clearance is left thereafter, you could possibly even get away with 215/45/17's!Z3cade wrote:Looks a good fit to me..

This is true, but any change from factory is a step away from what BMW originally intended. Unless you're looking to keep a car entirely stock then this shouldn't be an issue!Gazza wrote:I agree with Rob, they do 'Fit' ie bolted on but not as originally intended by BMW with the correct size tyre.
I could question the appearance of illegally spaced number plates, but as above it's all personal preference!Gazza wrote:Stretched tyres don't ?Z3cade wrote:You have to go for stretched tyres otherwise they look nasty..

My argument with my current plate if that it isn't misplaced, it just has two characters missing from the end

Re: Genuine Z3M Wheels for sale
Looks like the best tyre size that near matches the original diameter is 215/45/17 but whether they will fit under your arch is another matter..
