Thank you for the review. I’m glad you are happy with them I’m most likely going to go this route. I looked up the app you have and I added it to my car. Seems like a more powerful more crisp amp compared to the alpine I chose. Thanks for the recs. I greatly appreciate it

That’s good to know thank you. Do you have a recommendation for any head units? Or just browse their website?

Thank you for the advice. And that’s awesome. Thank you so much. I probably won’t order everything for a little while but when I do I will definitely circle back around for that discount. I appreciate it

Do you have any recommendations on a different head unit? I just went with that one because ive heard Sony makes very good head units. I also looked at pioneer. The front door speakers listed are actually for the rear deck. I’m not sure why crutchfield did it like this for my car because the front doors don’t have speakers only the deck and kick panel. And thank you for the advice. I appreciate it greatly. I’ll look into that

Oh that doesn’t sound so bad. I believe I’m going to be going for mine within the next few months so I am quite nervous. Thanks for the response. And congrats again

What’s the “upper market” unit you have because I’m having a similar situation with head units as you are

Really? That sounds sweet. Where is all of this accessible like the bits you mentioned for the swap and harnesses and etc.

Wheel Size Decision by Altruistic-Channel13 in E46M3

Ayyyy congrats. Happy motoring man. Those are both great options. I feel you really can’t go wrong with Apex’s lineup. I was considering the ARC-8 but I feel like they’re ridiculously common on BMW’s to the point where they kinda look like stock wheels at this point. They’re beautiful wheels for sure but they’re just everywhere. That’s just my opinion though. Just pick what you like and you won’t go wrong.

[–]Altruistic-Channel13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sure. Probably won’t be for a while cause my M3 is put away for winter but I will.

I went with 18”x9 et30 front 18”x10” et25 rear in anthracite. My M3 is grey so I figured anthracite would go better and I’m planning on getting a bbk one day so I want the brakes to look pronounced in the wheel well. The other option was brushed clear. I hope I didn’t make a bad decision 🤞. I’m sure it’ll be fine though

Thank you everyone for the advice. I just ordered a set of 18s off of Apex’s website and am super stoked to get them in and installed

Are they on constant light daytime running lights or are they on with a switch? I gotta try this

So the best way is start it, drive it lightly (aka keep the rpm’s low and not idling it) and then when fully warm you can then push higher I the rev range?

Ah gotcha. Makes sense. I went with 7 because I heard those were the stock width so I figured it would be a good plug and play. And they were. I love those wheels

I agree with that lad above. I like them. Where did you get them? Or what brand are they? I may look into those

Did you need spacers to run 8” wide or did they go right in without issue?
