Assuming this is for an F34 and not a 2003 M5 they're about 3/4 inch too small in diameter. If you go with a 255 width it should be a 255/45. That's a tad larger than stock, which is better than smaller.

not sure if F34 oem offsets are similar to the rest of the F3/4-series but 18x8.5 400M rears have a +47 offset. i suspect +47 is too high for the front and may rub part of the suspension or inside of the fenderwell. it will also have a more tucked appearance even if it did fit.

Thanks for the quick replies. This is indeed for a 2014 F34. I just picked up the car on Tuesday. I've got a set of left over Yokohama snow tires from an E60 that I was thinking about mounting on the 8" wheels, and using the 8.5"'s for a non winter square setup. This would assume that I buy another staggered set of 400M wheels (8 and 8.5s), although it seems that the 8.5s may not work on the front axle due to the offset.

(smooth spot on strut is just from my hand reaching up there, its not making any contact while driving) I can fit a finger between the rim and strut but only to my first knuckle, second doesnt fit. If yours are et47, a 10mm spacer would give you the same fitment. I am only running 225.45.19's though, so baby stretch compared to a 255 that would be a bit more meaty: |
