new csl owner :-)
 

hi i picked my csl up yesturday and i'm already beginning to love it :smt055
i have a couple of quirys tho. done a search and can't really fine the answers.

my cars currently running 225/40/19 front tyres and 255/35/19 rears. anybody had experience with this set-up? i know its not the standard size, what is?
also planning a few trackdays/ring trips and gonna get my moneys worth out of the standard brakes before i upgrade. what pads are best to run?

235 35 19 fronts
265 30 19 rears

The tyre size on yours is standard m3 set up

Most go for bbk straightaway. Try pagid rs pads, braided hoses, uprated fluid and pf 2 piece discs if staying standard calipers. This will be fine for ring and small session track use. If you stay out for long stints you might then highlight the weakness then go to bbk and wish you saved your money.

Welcome to the register Dave.:thumbs:

Welcome Dave

Spa 4th October, get it booked :thumbs:

Hiya Dave, I'm running the same size 255 rears as you on CSL wheels with no issues. However, I'm planning to put 235/265 Michelin SuperSports on after the winter as I've heard great things about them

Hi Dave, welcome, I ran that set up for a while as I had a spare set of tyres from my old M3, no problems at all, enjoy :)

Welcome mate

congrats on purchase - mega cars so enjoy it.

Get yourself a warranty :)

Welcome to the Forum Dave and the fabulous world of CSL ownership.

Some do go BBK straight away, mostly AP's or Alcons but as Lawsy said about, if only doing the odd track day and occasional run to the Ring, you'll get away with uprated fluid, pads and hoses without even doing the discs initially.

Good luck with her, which one did you buy?

Welcome and enjoy the site its full of all the info on the CSL you may ever need :beer:

Plus we have a "Duncan" too. Every site should have one:thumbs:
