BMW E36 M3... Molded in Fenders Flares is the way to go!

Hello Everyone, here is the final look at EW's E36 M3 once the fender flares were molded in. WOW!!!!! What a freaking difference! It looks so good. The car should of came from the factory this way.

I never noticed your sticker on the car. Looks good. Glad FAS is representing TEK.

Before the flares it was bigger but those were the only ones I have left.

[@OctaneAndAdrenaline]

how many mm did the flares add?

[@tekmotorsports4052]

The front are about 25mm and the rears 30mm. We started with Hoosiers 275/40/17’s but changed to 275/36/17’s which gave more clearance to lower the car a little more.

[@OctaneAndAdrenaline]

Do you think I can fit a drag wheel setup in the rear?

[@tekmotorsports4052]

It’s really going to depend on the size of wheel/rim and offset of wheel. What size are you thinking of?

[@OctaneAndAdrenaline]

@@tekmotorsports4052 honestly, 17x9 305/45. Offset is 35

[@tekmotorsports4052]

@@OctaneAndAdrenalineYeah, that won’t fit the flares I installed on the M3. You’ll need a wider flare or go with a smaller tire width. Another option to raise the rear up which can give you a little more clearance. I have also seen some people adding a spacer between the flare and the chassis for a wider tires.

@@tekmotorsports4052 Would 15 x 10 275/50/15 work with the rear raised?

[@tekmotorsports4052]

@@OctaneAndAdrenaline That should work while raising the if needed. The wheels in the M3 have a 25 offset so I think you should get them with 30 or higher offset just to make sure you don’t have to raise the car a lot. I have not installed this set up you’re asking about so not 100% sure.
