Guys,

Newly acquired F32 ZHP. Coming from an e90. Previously ran Apex Arc-8 18x9.5 ET 35 square with Michellin 235/45/18's. Sold the e90 with my winter setup (17's). I needed a new winter setup and wasn't sure if I wanted to use the Apex wheels (ditch the michellin's) or get a different set.

I tried on the Apex wheels, I was sure the rears would fit, but wasn't sure about the fronts. They fit but they stick out a bit. Just adding to the plethora of knowledge out there for our vehicles.

Decided I will just try to sell my old summer set next spring.
Went looking for a winter tire/wheel set.
Found a Moda MD11's with Michellin winters in size 255/45/18. The tires fit on full turn but the inner barrel hit my big brake kit.

Found a set of style 281's from a 6 series. 18x8 et30 all around. Fit perfectly. Haven't seen other F30/32's with this style. Seen mostly people get the 400m. So add this to the list of OEM BMW wheels that fit over the big brakes.

Agreed, I actually kinda like them for winters

Just bought a set of those rims for winter on my F30 based on your thread. Had not try them yet. Hopefully it will fit perfectly. Thanks

Any way of reposting the photos of the 281 wheels? I am looking at a local set for winters for my f30. Thanks.
