m3 silverstone with volks g25

[lookitsapples]

Pretty new to my a6000, so definitely could be better pictures. But here's my build

Engine:
6MT
Stage 2 e30 with bootmod3, waiting on my flex fuel kit. Already have the Bend Calibration filter kit to do full e85
SSR intakes
VRSF downpipes, single midpipe
Remus axle back with carbon tips
Vargas spline lock and CBC bolt

Suspension:
KW v3 w/ EDC delete with ground control camber plates
18mm front spacers

Rims:
Volk g25
20x10 +30 with 18mm spacers
20x11 +33

Let me know what you guys think!

I'm still fiddling with the front height as I do rub, while rarely, on certain right turns only. I think I need to get kw spring spacers for the rear cuz it appears to be maxed out and with big bumps that definitely rubs only on the rear left for some reason. This is my purely street setup as I'm using my 19 inch oem's for the track

Clean! Reps to a fellow local.

Looks great man. Always loved those wheels on this platform.

Soooo I don't really follow wheels like that so I never heard of these. I clicked the thread out of curiosity and im glad I did.
Wheels are beautiful with your car and love the stance.

Thanks! Ya Volks have always been more of a jdm thing and even then most guys run the te37 model if they do. I was a bit worried about the sizing of these rims but it’s grown on me for sure haha

[dms-01]

OP what is your tint percentage?

It's 70% up front, 20% driver/passenger, and 5% in the rears. Knock on wood, I've never been hassled by cops haha

Thanks man, I've never even heard of the volk g25 until a friend recently showed me. Always been a fan of the te37 or ce28s

I hear you. I've never had volks but all of my video game cars get laced with te37s

That said, I put some HREs on my f82 when I got it. I wanted 19s but found some 20s for a great price. Now when I see 19s of the same wheels I have, they look small lol

Haha yep! Couldn't pass up my deal I had either, I originally thought our cars would be 19 inch or bust too.

Is your tire barely clearing the front rubber fenders when turning full lock too? It's like a paper thin clearance for me lol

Honestly, I never heard any rubbing, my car isn't as tucked as yours is, and the previous owner never mentioned rubbing so I didn't bother to look inside the well for clearance.

Thanks! I think I've only seen one f80 with these g25's too, was definitely hesitant on how it'd turn out haha

Why bend calibration to do full e85? Many people run full e85 tunes with no upgrades to fuel system. Or flex fuel kits

Oh Commanderwiggin from this thread had me straight convinced from this thread https://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1891120

I’ve been seeing sporadic horror stories posted on the forums and given my luck with cars I didn’t want to risk it

Many people also don't understand how a Bosch fuel system is designed to run. I think I'll stick with the experts on this one and continue running proper filtration…also like the OE BMW cars running E85 which have fuel filters.

Thanks! I was planning on getting the GTS hood but seems like so many places are sold out, hoping I can pick one up soon. And those bayoptiks headlights are so nice but so freaking expensive haha.

lookitsapples Car looks good! Were you at Carmax in SJ on Saturday by any chance? Saw a clean F80 very similar to yours!

When someone says Silverstone is boring, just send them a link to this thread. Very nicely done!
