17” vs 18” vs 19” Wheels 0-60 & Weight Comparison E46 330ci

I test the difference between 3 different wheel setups on my E46 330ci. I weigh them, go for a drive, and test 0-100kmh 0-60mph on all setups
Wheels are
19" BBS Replikas - 8.5" / 9.5" 235/35/19 all around, 647.1mm diameter
18" Style 135 - 8" / 8.5" 225/40/18 - 255/40/18, 635.7mm diameter (rear)
17" Style 68 - 7.5" / 8,5" 225/45/17 - 245/40/17, 627.8mm diameter (rear)

    Since making this video i have tested the effects of wheel weight further The 18” 6.41 is indeed a hero run. It was deemed “invalid” by dragy as well. If you want to see a better picture of wheel weight and its effect on performance take a look at this video where i also test the effects of headers vs worn oe cats kzread.info/dash/bejne/oaR7lceQocbddtY.html

At a 20 or 19 inch size the larger wheel s will dominate simply because the same amount of power it takes to move the 15 size rims widget is get more more done or distance with a 20 at the same weight , gram lights and specially made wheels it’s custom ,,,,, I’m also into gearing it’s amazing fulcrum effects , amazing evaluations once again thanks for your data 👍🏽🤓 love learning

With tires one wheel weighs 20.2kg.Winter tires 205/55R16 on 4 wheels(Bridgestone Blizzak). They weigh 16.2kg per wheel. Diference in drive is huge. With winter tires and 16 inch steel wheels car is much more agile and responsive. Don't have dragy to mesure diference in acceleration, but I can feel it, car is faster from standstill. Been readind that Porche make some testing about wheel mass. They said that 1kg in rotation is equal as 6kg of load in the car. So..... mass of the wheel is very important for preformance of the car. Lighter the wheel you get better braking(less mass to stop from rotation). Big wheels look great..... but smaller wheels preforme better. Bmw power. 😎💪

    Hi Riccardo I have never experienced the problem youre describing. I dont shift slowly in this car either. Filling it with aft6 greatly improves the shifting feel and speed versus old oil. The problem youre describing doesnt sound like a gearbox problem though. But maybe more of a clutch problem really. Or a slave cylinder issue perhaps. Issues with the clutch can affect the gearbox as well resulting in sometimes, clunky shifts. But maybe im misunderstanding you. Do you mean that the 1st to 2nd shift sometimes is tricky so when you release the clutch the rpm is too high and the car will jerk foreward as the clutch engages? If so. I have had great luck with liqui molys gear protect and atf6 combined in the getrags 420g

    I have the 68s and had the 135s, too. Because of the weight, i didnt put them on the e46, sold them instead. Now i have a set of BBS RC 303 in 18", 8.5, which come in at a shade under 8 kg each, around 1 kg less than the 68s. I have also bought the compound disc brakes for the Front, official BMW, and will save an additional 1.3 kg per wheel at the Front, in total then around 7 kg less compared to a staggered 68 setup. Do you think this weight saving will be noticeable?

    If you do this video again, roll runs will be far more accurate in showing the speed difference because it eliminates the tire (compound/tread and age) differences that effect traction at launch. Something like a 20-100kph or 20-150kph (if you have the road for it) would make for a much more conclusive comparison.

    Mate, nice channel btw. I own the very same car. Really interesting because I installed M3 Style 67 (19 inches). According to RealOEM these rims weighs only 11,8kg & 12,4kg. The weight for Style 68 are 10,15 kg & 10,55kg (Front&rear). My guessing is that weight difference in your measurements are due to incorrect tire size, adding rubber and pressed air where there is no need. Regarding diameter, in Spain is only legal to change rims if you adapt the size of the rubber, so I am running 225/35/19 front & 265/30/19 rear. In this rubber the total diameter is even smaller, gaining less flank & precision through corners. Acceleration I couldnt tell, but for sure I gained traction at corner exits. To be honest, the combination of less height & wider rubber compensates any loss in pure acceleration. Personal opinion, of course.

    All mods should get an inspection similar to German TUV and some reports. The process is something called “homologation”. You need to get an official report from the fabricator that the part meets BMW Technical regulations, a second report from a mechanical engineer and finally a workshop stamp that the part has been installed correctly. Finally, Spanish TUV inspection. Long and money consuming. There are shortcuts if the fabricator has made it before (Recaro seats I.e.), but generally you need lots of money for it.

    Hey buddy, interesting video. A couple of important points: - The 17s are definitely going to give you faster acceleration than both the 18s and 19s. - It's never about the rims, it's always about the tire height, or the total diameter of your wheel, because now you're adding torque, it's like you're slightly altering your differential to a more acceleration-biased one. - When you run your acceleration tests, if you have old tires, your DSC will compromise a lot of your time, that's when the car is periodically cutting off power to limit the spin, that's why you were experiencing 40 and above better acceleration. - We will never know better than what the manufacturer what tire size is best for the car, remember, a car handles better on turns with its original designated height because there's a separate calculation dedicated to how much the car rolls sideways over its tipping point, thus putting down all the downforce for better handling. I have a 2003 e46 320ci that I've swapped for a tuned M54B30 from a 2006 X3 with headers and straight pipes and some other bits and tunes, I now make sub 5 seconds on a good day (Manual transmition) and that's also because I've installed a shorter differential. The only downside of reducing your wheel diameter is top speed and that's all but the acceleration will definitely be better.

I should have tested it 50-110kmh in the same gear which is what im doing now for various other parts testing. While the gearing change certainly matters, wheel weight does too. I think you will find my diff test video interesting, a 2.93 diff is faster to 100kmh than a 3.38 due to one less gearchange. But the 3.38 accelerates much harder in gear. I will repeat this video again when im able to afford (and find) the right wheels:)

    Youre right. I was just trying to say the weight difference(and perhaps the tiresize and more) makes the 17” feel more lively and .. spirited I appreciate your input :)

    Your gear changes were a lot better in the 18” wheel run vs the 19” runs. The saw tooth effect in the acceleration graph really slows you down from my experience with dragy runs

    Hi! You’ve ashed how could you improve the video so here’s my input: - Could have put wheels on a weight and show the results (cheap house weight with 0.1kg precision) - Record few launches and show best of each on all setups. - To be anywhere deterministic you’d have to have same sizes and tires for 0-100. If you can’t afford to make it happen it’s better to show rolling start results where tire grip won’t affect the result. - More to the point, less talking around. - Make your vid’s more informational, I.ex. about benefits of lower unsprung mass in car, how it benefits handling and elongate life of suspension components, benefits of higher side wall of tire, how it helps absorbing so less stress on suspension also more comfortable for the driver and passengers. Slimmer and lighter wheel equal lower fuel consumption. How a bigger radius of mass makes it so cars lose a lot of power just to move something that’s heavy and further from center. Also negatives of slimmer tires (I. ex. less grip on dry, higher braking distances), higher side wall ( I. Ex. worser feedback). Good result overall, liked - just not enough to subscribe yet, keep going ;)

    Great input. I did weigh them on a bath scale and with a fish scale thingy. I just didnt inckude it in the video as i found it hard to hold my camera(iphone) and a wheel while getting any footage worth showing. I now have a gopro i can use but i didnt have that at the time. No excuse though. Just didnt manage go get decent footage out of it Youre right on all accounts and i will keep it in mind for future videos. More to the point. More informational. Better footage etc. Lots of places i can improve.

    I didn't know 17 inches weigh 10kgs less than 19 inches. I'm in Europe and we usually have 16 inch wheels on cars, and I have those on my E46s too. Would it be worth changing to 17 in means of driveability/handling? Considering rubbers cost a lot more than 16 inch ones.. Thanks in advance for your answer, nice video!

    And big thanks for the questions. I havent tried 16” setup om this car and dont think it will fit over the brakes either. But from past experience i think the best setup is 17” for both comfort and handling, whereas the 18 is more about looks and handling. 19 being just looks. 16 being “just” comfort

    @@swansmeister I have a lot data about that, different dynos with big difference in hp, other tests like this published on the internet of different cars and its consistent. 19" usually has the double of moment inertia than 17" In this case it is not just the difference from 19 to 17, but the huge difference of 44kg (97lb). And unsprung mass has nothing to do with acceleration, but with suspension.
