That's real close to what I run today, just 3mm more offset which is perfect. There's no 9" with a good fitting offset, so I'll have to settle with 8.5.

Then it's really down to 245/35 or 255/35 on a 8.5 ..... The 255 bulge doesn't look too bad I suppose. 245 no bulge but a hair shorter .. I like 255 at oem height
Ive considered a drop I keep going back and forth with it though living in the northeast are roads are murder. Plus I don't want to do any favors plowing the roads for the municipality in the winter

Thanks for the heads up. Those are just the front specs that I am running. I will be on 265-35-19 on the rear with 19x10 et 45. Not square but I have been eyeballing all of these threads for similar fitments and yours caught my eye.

in the link, bimmerguy91 has 255/35/19 on 19x8.5 et35 arc-8, the tiny bit of bulge is barely noticeable at best and will provide some curb protection. https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...ht=bimmerguy91

tbh, i think you may be disappointed with oz leggera hlt with 19x8.5 et35 square, because the face will have minimal concave, basically flat. however, if you don't mind flat face profiles. 19x8.5 et35 with 255/35/19 will be fine

pics for reference, the black f36 appears to have four fronts, whereas the white f30 has a staggered setup, probably a 9.5" rear with more concavity.
Yeah, you are probably right. I want the rear one there square .

I thought though, that 35 would be more concave than 40 or 47. But I guess the width is more of a factor for concavity. I'll have to do some actual maths.

Here in the US tire rack is the _only dealer for OZ, those are out of stock and it may be awhile because Italy is still partially shut. So I'll continue the search for a nice looking concave-ish wheel, but I am making nice progress on the specs, thanks.

I could just get the arc8s again, this time in 19, maybe silver instead of anthracite. Bc forged has a couple nice styles but they're $4-5k.

For some reason I actually like the oem 397 style .. that's what started all this.



I suppose the 437m is similar. Maybe I could powder coat them to get rid of that middle part, I've never cared for black wheels .. except rega masters on certain bright blue or yellow jdm cars.

Like this



I don't know .. They're similar to the 400m I had stock which didn't suit my eye at all.

Again I have to be up in 3 hours and I have 65 chrome tabs open with wheels.

I kinda like these AEZ Antigua .. never noticed them before

19x8.5 et33 .. 255/35/19 ... I may very well get these

Also liking the vmr v801s but can't for the life of me find a black car with them in silver .. not the half black finish. They look really nice on this blue car here. They remind me of the E39 m5..



Any thoughts or opinions on the Antigua vs the v891. Black car, lowered, yellow brakes. I think these are hard just maybe a bit too flashy.

I can't decide. And the arc8s still are on the table.

F30 19x9 Square

I'm running Brada CX2s 19x9 ET 30 235/40/19.

Stock suspension & no spacers.

Super happy with the fitment. Fender gap is perfect. Wheels are very flush to slightly poking.

Something a little different 🫡
