235/35/19 front
265/30/19 rear

I wanted to have them a bit stretched just they'd rub anywhere.. No issues so far!

Ps. These are the minimum width recommended for these wheels.

At first I thought the drop was too much, but after a while it looks perfect.

Awesome! Exact same opinion over here. Glad you like them man.
I've had them for a bit now and I love it, don't know how I drove around in stock height before haha.
My car hasn't fallen apart after a month so it's all good
They should be good for ages as they aren't an aggressive drop.

How do you think this drop would look with 20x9 and 20x10? I'm not sure what type of suspension I have. I have 16 f33 435i m sport.

Depends on the offsets on your wheels mate..
fitment is perfect with OEM 437m wheels - 265/30/19 rears and 235/35/19 fronts

dumb question, how do i know what my car has?
I bought mine used. It's got M-sport package, but i dont know if it's got the Adaptive or whatnot that it's called

Bmw VIN check online
Does your cars ride get stiffer when you change into sport/sport plus?

Hey mate
No issues at all - my only regret is not getting them done when I bought the car 4 years ago.
I've never heard of this issue? Where did you see this?

437m wheels with h&r's are a winning combo 😍

I agree

Wow...just wow! I have a ZHP 435i and am thinking of going this exact same route.

Where did you get the wheels?

Have you thought about Dinan bump stops and shockware?

Interesting read. I think the problem comes with the combo they're running.

My set up is adaptive suspension, Michelin ps4s tyres and h&r sport springs.

The guys on that thread seem to be running the bilstein shocks with h&r springs (sport or super sport?) with run flats.. not sure how the top hats would react to that.

I've never bottomed out with my set up and it's very smooth and compliant.

I have hit a giant pothole once on the passenger side and properly shat myself, it was raining heavy and it was night time, didn't even see the thing. The car was and still is fine, but I felt so bad for the car lol.

Hope this helps

What makes you say the super sport will ruin my car? Curious. I have M-sport adaptable suspension and I just upgraded to 19'' wheels and want to remove as much gap as possible. I assumed the supersport would be the way to go.

I have a 2014 435i coupe. I was thinking of going H&R Springs + Bilstein B8 Shocks/Struts because I’ve always heard that getting lowering springs alone would wear out the stock shocks prematurely.

But then the price of H&R Springs + Bilstein B8 is about $800 or so.... and with $200 more, I could just get the BC Racing Coilovers. Hard decision.

Hi! Love you look! Just bought these wheels for my 435i rwd. Thinking of going for the hr just like you. Have you ridden with a full car? 4 peoples in the car? Does it rub?
Sorry for my bad English!

Before you pull the trigger remember most of us here getting spring only setup with stock/B8/koni shock are here for minimal drop. That's right we don't want to slam the car.

BC racing coilovers have almost 2" minimum drop... that's right that is the highest it can go

[misguided_will]

for those who have worn out their adaptive suspension, how low did they go and how long before the damage is done?

[Tappy74]

I just got a set of these installed on my car today (also a blue 435i). Love the look of your car.

My front looks great, but one rear corner sits high. The measurements from floor to wheel arch with stock wheels are:
FR 665
FL 665
RR 672
RL 685.

Should I wait to see if it settles, or is there likely a problem?

[Tappy74]

Took it back to the shop, they swapped rear springs left to right, and now there's only about a 3mm difference, so I'm happy with that. Agree that the ride with the Sport springs is fine (still softer than my E90 325i M Sport), and it certainly looks better than stock!
