Staggered to squared fitment question

Gvit · 09-01-2019, 08:33 AM

I have a 17 340i M-sport (stock springs) w/ 19 inch staggered (225/40 front 255/35 rear) & have an opportunity to pick up a squared set of 255/35r19 on 19x9 72.56 +15 offset. Any fitment issues or concerns? TIA

That's a very low offset. Don't think they'll work. I'm running a square set of OEM 437M fronts (19x9) that are +29 offset. Currently on 245/35R19, down from the 255/35s that were originally on the wheels and that rubbed on hard bumps and dips (I'm lowered on H&R Sport springs).

I found my post from when I first mounted them (with the 255/35s).

Even with +29, they poke a bit. +15 would be pushed out 1.4cm beyond what's in these pics.

Very helpful information.

I just picked up a F36 with xDrive and M Sport. The wheels are 704M in ferric grey. The tires are Front: 19x8.0, 225/40 R19 Rear: 19x8.5, 255/35 R19.

I'm considering picking up an inexpensive set of Style 396 wheels (18x8 ET +34) with 225/45 R18 tires in a squared set up for winter.

The 396 wheels came with the F36 until at least 2014.

Because the 396 wheels were an option on this generation of car, I assume they would be O.K. as a winter tire set up. They won't look as nice. But I think that's O.K. for the 4 or 5 months a year I'll need them.

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance.
