Thanks guys. I was running them on my E36 M3 but these really are perfect for a ZHP.

I like these over mine.... A lot... As they are about 5lbs/rim lighter.

They are quite light for 18's. I weighed the rear 9J/255 on my bathroom scale and it was only 45lbs..

I hope I don't get hammered for this comment... I love love love my ZHP, unfortunately, I do not love the wheels. I mean, they are beautifully clean with great rubber, just not a style for me.. Either way, GLWS!

CSL rims.. Now those make me :drool

Thanks guys. I know no one wheel can possibly for everybody but it's tough to find an era-specific wheel that matches the BMW form and function if you don't want your car to look aftermarket. (plus they are substantially lighter than any CSL/rep you could buy!) :)

Sometimes I worry about wheels looking nicer than the rest of the car. My car is a daily driver and it shows; would these be too pristine? Weird question? Yup.

Seriously, pics do not do these wheels justice.

Jon was kind enough to show me one of the wheels since we were in the same vicinity. It was gorgeous! The pictures don't do it justice. Just the right color and the right amount of shine, which you can't pic up from the screen. Perfect condition, and the tires look great too. This will be a good pickup for someone.

Thanks John. Wish you'd make my life easy and upgrade your ZHP! Running square tires is overrated.

Shedding 6lb per wheel of unsprung weight would wake that car up...

These are unbelievable tempting, since I'm going to need new rears soon and have been also contemplating getting wheels with the tire purchase. Unfortunately with summer ending and winter coming in a few months I'm going to need winter tires (or at least a decent set of all-seasons) for those few months too.

Hmmm.....decisions decisions....

Still amazing wheels. Somebody buy them so I can stop picturing my car with them on.

Perfect timing to grab these and put dedicated winter tires on your stock wheels..

I just saw this.

Are these a direct fit for a 2006 ZHP coupe with no fender roll or spacers?

If so, are these still available?

The front wheels will be like having 12mm spacers on your stock ZHP wheels. It won't need a fender roll if on stock ZHP suspension and I'm fairly certain even if you were lower you'd be good to go.

The rear wheels will be like having 14mm spacers on the stock ZHP wheels. This usually fits without rub but some members do get a little rub with 15mm on a stock setup. I'm running 15mm spacers in the rear but have rolled fenders - I was prepping for a drop.

I personally think they'd work but do your research and hopefully someone else will comment. I just used willtheyfit.com and a little knowledge from my spacer research.

Hey Todd, yes they are still available.

More info below..

Just looked up the offsets of style 135's and your offset calculations seem to be correct. (I had no idea the stock ZHP wheels were so high!)

German TUV mandates cars must have ~25mm clearance between the wheels & fenders for snow chain clearance. FWIW, i'm running 12mm spacers on the front of my E36 and 5mm rear spacers with the OEM wheels with no rubbing whatsoever. Lowering a car will also increase clearance since you pick up some additional negative camber...

That said, the S54-swapped Rogue wagon was equipped with these same exact wheels -- although I don't know if they rolled the rear fenders? These sizes were specifically made for non-M E46 bodies, and apparently I was wrong about the rear offsets being ET42. Looking at my own pics they are stamped 45 and the following link confirms it. 3mm isn't much but it certainly helps in this case. Quite a bit of other info here too.
