Quick reference F30 fitment

rybski Do you have any pics of your car with the Black w/ 2x hyper silver 437's?

Ok, so this is the third or fourth time I've gone through this entire thread, and I LOVE how these wheels look on the F30, and am definitely going this direction thanks to all your cars here that I've seen, they all look so good!

For anyone jumping to the end, and just reading this post, here are my thoughts for an F30, mildly lowered (I've got H&R sport springs), as I've been looking for:

Only my opinion -

Best fitment I'd recommend:
235/40/19 Front and 265/35/19 Rear

Followed by:
245/35/19 Front and 265/35/19 Rear
235/35/19 Front and 265/30/19 Rear
225/40/19 Front and 255/35/19 Rear

Again, these are only my opinions for anyone looking for a quick answer on what fits without rubbing on a mildly lowered F30, from what I've gathered from this amazing thread!

HA, funny you should ask. I'm currently having tires mounted to the 2x hyper silver. Also installing the VAC monoball control arms. Literally dropped the car off 2 hrs ago. I'll post pics this weekend.

Would these sizes fit without rubbing?
Would probably fit with that suspension, but would really poke. I wouldn't recommend it. But to each his own.

I'm running 35psi all around and every bump and potholes feels like car is going to fall apart 🙃 😪
How many miles on the car and when were the shocks last replaced? (Ride quality question)

Something else to consider is the wear on the tires, if the alignment was off on the previous car then even if they are aligned on yours you might experience strange behavior. (Tramlining thought)

No rubbing anywhere.

Love it.

Yes you can fit
255/35/19 and 265/35/19 f30 Xdrive - only 1% diff
245/35/19 and 285/30/19 f30 Xdrive - only 0.3% diff

Just a question for 437m and lowering.
Did anyone change the bump stops from M cars?

The reason i ask is that i already have a set of genuine 437m and about to install some Eibach pro springs, my bump stops are a bit knackerd anyway so thought i woukld change them. My concern isn't about bottoming out, but instead tyre rub on the arch when people sit in the back.

I have 245s on the front, and 265s on the back.
Does anyone know would the M bumps stops will mean i will bottom out before tyre rub (which i would prefer) as opposed to the tyres catching on the arch before bottoming out (which i would assume to be worse)
Or should i just play is safe and replace my standard bump stops

I installed the Dinan bump stops those would probably work for you.

Had some 437m already but now lowered.

Eibach Pro Kit
F8X bump stops.

245/35 front
265/35 back

Was worried that the extended bump stops will increase suspension travel and cause rubbing- So far so good even with a more energetic drive and doens't feel any firmed IMO from stock with comfort mode on adaptive. Haven't tried with a loaded car yet though.

You will need to lower it to let the wheels tuck in a bit, as at stock height they do have a bit of poke to them!
Hey mate, does lowering the car make the tyres poke less?
I’ve never lowered a car, and have slight poke on the 245/35 265/35 setup atm on stock height. Would lowering it remove some of the poke?

Thanks heaps
