Here ya go!- Pics cause at work and it's convenient. Not to mention we can't attach xlsx files.... First should be a list of parts included in the ECS kit, the orange highlights are the bits not used. Coulda saved ~$45.00..... Next is pic of parts included in the install kit Third is my full install parts list, including the ECS install kit, the dampers & springs I chose and Dinan camber plates, as well as all the other bits needed for a /full/ refresh. A few notes: 1- Used ECS for so much just for convienence- be sure to shop around for best deals! 2- Yes, that's 4 strut carrier gaskets- with the camber plates you need two each- one over & one under, rather than just two needed without the camber plates. 3- I had to cut the bump stops down by ~50%. Regardless of what components get installed, be sure to check them before calling the job complete.

thanks for all the compliments and i have thought about painting the calipers a different color in the past. i think red could look quite cool. however, im a pretty low-key kinda guy and im pretty happy with the OEM greyish color.
i think the brakes (regardless of color) still stand out quite a bit since they're quite large! the 313 wheels also help the brakes 'pop' out. |

For the E9X platform, there is both an 18" set and a 19" set, both of which are staggered with different offsets. Finally, there is also a 19" set for the E89 Z4. The larger 19" 313M wheels seem to be the ones stamped with "BMW Performance." In comparison with the stock style 261M, the front 313M wheels are lighter, while the rears are slightly heavier. So overall they're nearly identical and the difference is negligible. |

In that case, the 18" set for the 135i is the lightest of the four. The 18" and 19" versions for the E9X and E89 Z4 weigh upwards of 12 and 13kg.

Uh, what? People swap wheels between different BMW platforms regularly. There are more than a few members here running 17" Style 68M double-spoke wheels from the the E46, because they're lightweight and can clear the large Brembo brake calipers. |

So what? The Style 313 wheels in question were made in a variety of different sizes and offsets. I fail to see how it's pointless to compare them. This forum and many others like it regularly contain threads in which people ask if a certain size and offset will fit their vehicle. If more people spent time going over the numbers, individuals would have a better understanding of how wheel sizing works and they might be able to figure out what fits on their cars without asking the same questions over and over.
Not to mention, there are a myriad of different sizes and designs from other manufacturers that can be fitted to cars you'd never expect. Corvette salad shooters on a VW or BMW E30, for example. Hell, Mahle-BBS made similar styles and sizes of wheels for Porsche, BMW and Mercedes in the past. |
