I think it's a good looking Wheel! I like the two-tone. I personally wouldn't go out and buy these, but if they came on the car, I would be completely satisfied. I don't like the 20×8.5 fitment though, that's a bit silly. You're going 20, at least make it a 9 or 9.5 wide...

Whatss the widest rear tires are you guys running on the 405ms? The time to replace the pirellis is getting close. I'm thinking 4S 235/35/20 and 265/30/20.... for some reason the 275s are cheaper lol, might be way too wide for the rim though.

i'd just leave the rear at oem size and increase the front to 245/30/20(max width on 20x8) to reduce understeer |

fwiw, your original plan of 235/35/20(26.5"), 265/30/20(26.3") would have a diameter difference of 0.8%. OEM sizes on 20" are 225/35/20(26.2"), 255/30/20(26.1"), 0.4% difference EDIT my recommendation of 245/30/20(25.8"), 255/30/20(26.1") is a diameter difference of 1.2%. although it should work, I'll rescind this recommendation OEM size for front and rear seems to be the only option on OEM 20" wheels Last edited by alohasurftoad; 07-03-2018 at 11:37 AM.. |

Oh wow. That's great. I was a little worried hearing stories about how high Performance summer tires go out by 16k miles.

I'm running 235/35/20 and 265/30/20 michelin ps4s on OEM 405M. It's my second summer and I really enjoy them. Yes 265 is not recommended on 8.5" but I decided to try it since the 255/30 was not available last year. So far I have not experience any single problem. The ride is SO MUCH better then the crappy rft pzero . The car doesn't feel "sloppy" at all. All I can say is go for it you'll not regret it. edit I just realized you quoted the post about my car ahah |

I'm assuming you're running springs or some type of aftermarket setup..? I have OEM 442's with 8 inch wide wheels for the front and 8.5 in the rear. I'm currently running the OEM Bridgestone Potenza S001 RFT 225/40/19 in the front and 255/35/19 in the rear. I'm running stock suspension, but it's M-sport with adaptive suspension, so it seems fairly low from the factory. I have my tire & wheel package listed in the classified section here, but I'd rather just sell the tires and keep the 442's. I'd like to run 235/40/19 and 265/35/19 on my 442's, but I'm trying to get as much advice as possible as far as rubbing. I don't want ANY rubbing issues! Rubbing defeats the purpose of trying to get more contact patch on the ground, effects handling, creates excessive tire wear, etc... Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I'll include some recent pics, I've yet to install the spacers. Last edited by TEST DRYVER; 07-07-2018 at 02:10 AM.. Reason: Added pics |

405M wheels looks great but any 20" wheel on F30x will require a tire with a smaller sidewall. Smaller tire sidewall means less comfort and there are many threads where 405M wheel owners moved to a 19" or even 18" wheel.
In some parts of the US (especially on the East Coast), the road imperfections make any 20" wheel a difficult proposition: bent wheels, blown tires and the time lost. |

Just trying to figure out what 19" I want to replace with, as I'd really like a 19x9.5 out back. These 20x8.5s don't cut it
