No they are not the same as the OEM offsets, we build our recommended offsets to be as flush with the fenders without rubbing with proper tire sizes.

The class I race in has to have the same (stock)off set. How much did you have to increase the off set.

Was not that much, if you need to have them built for OEM offsets, that is not a problem.

If you got fitment questions, contact me directly.

Can't wait to see this car in person this week

biglare · 08-25-2011, 02:09 AM

Thanks for the comments everyone! I am loving this car more and more with every drive! Between the ESS M3 and the ESS 1M, I am in absolute heaven!

Thanks for answering the HRE wheels comments Lon. I love the design and color for the car. They also hold up very well when hammering around the track. :

More pictures and videos will be up soon!

Hit me up for any other questions that you may have.

Great video! I can watch these all day long, especially with exhaust notes. Sweet art car, too!

-Thanks. Wish I had video of me driving my M5 with Matt (from Smokingtire.com and The Car Show) and his friend. I was hitting the high speed esses of the last OCRC track hard enough I had to retire the Hankook v12s because of wear on the sidewalls, lol. Lots of body roll with 3x 250lb guys in the car!

Will a 275F/295R width tire combo work on the stock wheels considering they are M3 comp wheels?

I heard some M3 was 4the seconds faster at some track by doing that.

Thanks for putting up the video Earl, and more importantly thank you for your continued instruction. I feel like I'm improving with each track event thanks to you.

I am not sure about putting those size tires on the stock wheels for the 1M. Those sizes sound a little large for the wheel size, but again I have not tried it. Also, it really depends on the tire brand and make as some run more square and wider than others.

As for my setup, the Toyo Proxes1 the 255/35 fronts rub slightly close to full lock turn, but did not rub while driving on the track. It only rubs when in parking lots or driveways parking. Not an issue for me though.

Enjoy!
