et30 square setup on F32?

I don't seem to be getting anywhere with working out my offsets so apologise if this is seen as spam..

I'm wanting to run the following setup:

235/35/20 8.5 et30 front
255/30/20 8.5 et30 rear

Does anyone see any issue with this setup? I plan on getting Eibach pro kit springs in a few months too so a slight drop will be happening.

I think you'll be fine with those spec. I've seen people run 9" wide with et30 and were ok.

thank you - I'm going to bite the bullet and just order the new setup, HRE don't recommend it but I'm going to put it down to them not having the chance to trying it

with staggered tire sizes, have you considered staggered rim widths?

i'd go 235/35/20 & 265/30/20(or 275/30/20) on 20x8.5 ET30 & 20x9.5(or10") ET42ish.

here is a thread with 20"...https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1047084

FYI HRE 20x8.5 ET30 will be flat face and no concavity, but if you don't care or that's what you prefer and you've already ordered it, post pics after you get them.

Not sure I understand the purpose of going staggered if the et is the same. You can't tell the wheels are wider than the from from the rear. And there's no concavity with this setup. Seems to just be a headache as you can't rotate tires correctly. Are you big turbo looking for grip?

It's more so that I can keep the existing tyres as I shelled out £890 around 2 months ago 😩

Stock turbo

Id get 9.5" ET42(or 10" ET40) rears and use the 255, it'll be stretched out of spec on 10", though. Or get 265/30/20(or 275/30/20) and sell the 255 to recoup some cost.

But if you're happy with four fronts(no concave), i'm happy.
