How close are you to rubbing? I'm going 19x10 on the rear and im on the fence about tires. I really want to run 285/30 in the back. Do you have any wiggle room back there?

I was hoping to use my forgestar F-14s from my E92 M-Sport.
19x8.5 et32 235/35 19x10 et38 275/30 Will this set up work on my F30 M-Sport?

I got the stock info from this thread: 18" Double Spoke Style 400M (M Sport wheels) - 18x8" ET34 225/45-18 front / 18x8.5" ET47 255/40-18 rear My only explanation as to why it will work is because the stock rims are 8.5 wide, but have an incredibly deep (from the car) offset because the concavity is shallow. It allows us to bring in the offset a lot while increasing the width of the wheel without moving the part that would hit the suspension. |

My front setup will be 255/35/19. 0.6" closer to suspension and 0.6" more towards the fender. Should be plenty of room to occomodate 0.6" on both sides (I hope). http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp?...&text1=&text2= My only issue now is the rear tires. If I go 265/35 in the rear, I'll be 0.1" closer to suspension and only 0.3" more towards the fender - no problem to fit. http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp?...&text1=&text2= But if I go 285/30, I'll be 0.5" closer to suspension and 0.7" closer to fender - could be cutting it close. http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp?...&text1=&text2= Seems like either would work. Also to factor in for me is that if I go 265/35 rear, I'm going with Michilin Super Sports. If I get 285/30, I'm going with Continental ExtremeContact DW. Sorry, this is apparently my wheel diary.

For the fronts, you may want to shoot for a slightly lower offset or move to a 245. I wonder what the performance difference is between a 245 and a 255 on a 19" rim. I suspect the stretch of the sidewall has the potential to cause issues when cornering. FWIW, your front choice is essentially the same as mine. Link!
For the rears, 285 seems a bit too much. Try with a 275/35. Tire choice is somewhat odd on tirerack, but it would straddle the middle ground of 265/35 and 285/30. Could also do 275/35/19 on a 19x10+42. (This is all speculation and guesswork on my part, I have no background experience with aftermarket rims.) |

The problem with the 275/35 tire is that its 26.57" diameter compared to 26" stock. 265/35 is 26.30" and 285/30 is 25.73". I'd like to stay as close to stock diameter as possible for the spedo and mpg calculations.

I spoke with Forgestar today and they said my current setup would fit. Just incase anyone wanted to know.

So when are you going to put em on? Seems like it would stick out too far - can't wait to see it! Are you planning a drop?

My F30 is on order and won't be here until the first week in January. I'm not planning on dropping it.

Yea, I'm at the point of no return. After doing tons of research, I wish I would have gone 8.5 up front and 9.5 rear. That way the 265 would be a better fit on the 9.5 wheel. I keep flip flopping b/t the 265 and 285 tire. I'll probably change my mind 7 more times before I get my car.
