Silver&Terra335 on e90post.com wanted a clean set up for his E90. With recommendations from Zoeb, he chose to go with the Hyper Silver LC818’s to keep everything simple and classy. That’s exactly how the whole set up came out in the end. Still one of the cleanest E90’s out there!

Danny was one of the first few BMW owners to run the Linea Corse LC818’s. Thinking about it, the LC818 has been out for more than three years yet it’s still one of our top selling wheels.

Exactly two years ago, 247media.org did a small photoshoot for Zoeb’s E92 M3 running the Hyper Silver LC818’s. These wheels are on top of the list if you ask us the best looking wheels for an M3.
Owner: Carrozzeria
Car: 2001 BMW E46 M3
Wheels: 19×8.5/10 Linea Corse LC818 - Satin Black (5×120 +30+22)
Tires: 245/40/19 Front, 275/35/19 Rear
Suspension: Ground Control Coilovers
When most people think of BMW’s, they think of cars that are purely about luxury. But let’s not forget about the high-performance versions like the M3, that were made for real car enthusiasts to enjoy. Take this E46 M3 as an example. You would think that the stock 333bhp would be enough but there are shops like Carrozzeria who think otherwise. This beautiful machine now makes 800hp, making almost thrice as much power as a stock M3. How you put down all that power is another thing. A set of Ground Control coilovers, harder suspension bushings and thicker sway bars were installed on the car to make it go straight when you’re pounding on that accelerator pedal. A set of Satin Black Linea Corse LC818’s in M3 fitment were also mounted up on the car, providing more grip from that wider stance. E46 M3 owners better take notes because this is how you do it.
Here’s what was done to the car so far according to the owner:
HPF where it had forged internal and lower compression motor build done. Methanol injection was added as well. Options added to the HPF kit was black HKS blow off valves and an anodized inter-cooler. I then had the sub-frame welded for added strength and reliability to the rear end. I then had new race bushings placed through out rear end and transmission to include motor mounts. I opted for HPF’s Titanium exhaust, HPF Traction Control, HPF Carbon Fiber Intake Air Duct, HPF Engine Cover. AEM gauges are mounted inside to read the boost and A/F ratio on the 800 hp motor.
The car also has Brembo front and rear. Ground control coil-overs, GC Sway bars, GC Caster/Camber plates. Was orginally titanium silver in color and is now Lamborghini Murcielago LP670 SV Biaco Isis (white) color with matte black roof. Linea Corse LC818 wheels in Satin Black to bring together the exposed carbon fiber on my Vorsteiner front bumper with one-piece lip, Vorsteiner CSL trunk and Vorsteiner diffuser. Clear bra done to front of vehicle by Seattle Accutint.

This particular set of LC888’s on Bobby’s M3 came off our demo car at SEMA back in November. That means Bobby is the only one currently running the LC888’s in M3 fitment. Looks like we will be seeing more of these on M3’s since we just got the first shipment of LC888’s in this size which are now available for purchase.

The last time we had Tommy on this site was back in May when he still had his Lexus SC300 on Royal Silver MXR’s. Well, Tommy has once again switched cars for the third time in three years. He is now the proud of owner of this clean and pristine E46 Sedan running the new Linea Corse LC888’s in Polished finish.

Back in 2010, the Dude borrowed Andrew’s car for a few hours to snap some photos of it on a set of LC818’s in M3 fitment. The fitment of these wheels do require some fender rolling and/or pulling and a tire with a rounded sidewall (Toyo T1R, Falken FK452, etc).
