Rim advice

I have a Melbourne red 428i. This whole time ive been looking for black rims but ive stumbled across 305 forged
ft107 rims that are stealth gray. Anyone have stealth gray on Melbourne red or have any thoughts on if it would look nice? Ive never seen the color in person nor on my color vehicle so i was hoping someone here might.

Also, i am planning on 19s.
Rear 19x9.5 Gray Wheel 305 Forged FT107 5x112 35
Front 19x8.5 Gray Wheel 305 Forged FT107 5x120 32

The rep stated i might have issues with fitment on the 9.5, anyone think i will? Im not lowered but thought of h r super sport springs.


Thanks in advance for your input

Maybe he meant the bolt pattern in the rear?

I dont think you will have an issue , even if you install aftermarket springs.

Probably you will need to play with camber.

Example , f32 435 with eibach-prokit

19x9.5 et33 - tire 275/30/19
OEM camber alignment/camber etc specs

Your profile says 328. Your post says 428. the 3er will have difficultly at +35 while the 4er will fit just fine. If it is a sedan and you want +35, id recommend lowering it and running 255s. If it is a 428, you should be fine with a 265

I got into my first car accident and lost my 328i about two months ago
Got a 428i recently and haven't been on here in awhile due to not wanting to be depressed about it

This.

If the bolt pattern you listed is correct, you WILL have issues.

Ok, i appreciate yall. He didn't mention the bolt pattern but more the fitment of 9.5 stating 9 should be the max for the vehicle. Good to know bolt patterns would be an issue. Any thoughts on stealth gray on Melbourne red?

I like dark wheels on Melbourne Red. Check out this thread to see what some other members have done. Lots of examples of different wheels on MR F30s.
