I just read all 15 pages and I have a couple questions. I'm about to pick up a set of 437s off an M3 and plan on going with MP4S tires and just want to make sure I get the correct sizes.

A lot of people on here recommend a 235/40 265/35 setup but some people mentioned slight rubbing. I plan on lowering the car immediately and want to find the best fitment and drop.

- Would 235/35 265/35 with H&R Sport Springs be flush without rubbing?
- What is the ideal drop/tire size combo?

If your car is RWD then 245/35 & 265/35 will be perfect on H&R

Perfect for sedans or wagon?

I just installed OEM 437m and the 275 rub on my 340i.

Planning to put the 255 on the rear and get 245 up front.

Perfect on both.

I’m not surprised the 275 is rubbing - it’s too agressive!

Now I want to buy one for my f30 too. That looks great, why didn't I saw anyone using that before?

Currently washing my F30 with Sun Joe SPX4000-PRO which is my top pick on this Most Popular 10 Best Electric Pressure Washer Review.

I know this thread is for the 437 wheels but I'm having a hard time finding answers and I'm hoping someone here may be able to help (please link me a correct thread if you know of one regarding fitment). I'm looking at getting 19 inch wheels on my xDrive. I'm wondering if a square setup of 19x8.5 ET 35 (or 37, etc...) 245/40/19 will fit on stock suspension without rubbing. Michigan roads are absolutely brutal so I would hope to stay above a 40 ratio. Any advice for square 19 inch setups? Thank you!

FYI

i just put 235/35 up front and moved the 255/35 to the rear.

no scrubbing as you'd expect but it does look a little stretched.

i think i'd got 265 at the back next time as seems to be the consensus

i wonder if getting the wheels machined to change the offset is a better idea to safely run wider rubber.

anyone able to comment?

Just to add to anyone wanting to go low on coilovers with these wheels.
This is on my 340i RWD F31

I run a 255/35 up rear and i dont think with out rolling the arch or running some aggressive camber you will get away with anything bigger on the rear rim.

Even a size up to a 265/35 will rub imo! I want to as i want to remove some of the stretch but as above its not going to work.

225/40 on the front fits fine but imo its stretched more than it needs to be. A 235/40 would fit fine and still leave you loads of room

Heres a photo of my car to show how it sits. Like i said im low on the coilovers, not mega low but pretty low!

Thanks for the share and yes, I'd be keen on that splitter also

Anyone running Dinan springs with these wheels? If so can you share some pics?

I just mounted my wheels (with 245/35/19 & 265/35/19 tires) and now I'm desperately trying to get rid of the wheel gap, but not sure if the Dinan springs will lower it enough.

Splitter is VARIS carbon fiber, for what ever reason in the uk they are hard to get.

Is it a genuine Varis one or a rep?

Any links to UK suppliers?

Its a pain in the ass to buy stuff from them. And i was in Japan!

These are the only 2 uk suppliers that i know of:
https://www.rosssport.com/
https://indigo-gt.com/

https://www.vogueautomotive.com/ do sell one but im unsure if its a real one or not

Its not a cheap spoiler, i think shipped mine worked out at just under £400 which at the time i thought was a pretty good deal but if that vogueautomotive one is real thats a better price!

If you are lowered youll run into things with it! iv smacked mine twice now and god knows how iv not ripped it off!

Still loving these wheels! Rubbing a bit under full lock with the 245's up front. I'm having coil overs installed within the next week or two, will update with how she sits!

I'm running on 265 and I think I'm a bit lower than what it seems in your photo, no rubbing!

Any pictures of these wheels on a sedan with the M-performance suspension? I'm wondering if the slight drop the suspension has will introduce enough camber to remove the 'poke'

Just bought some 437Ms painted in black. Going to order 235/35 front and 265/30 M4S rear on my F31.

Just need to get answers on these two questions.
- Has anyone got problems with Speedometer, EBD, ABS, or traction control?
- Does having these tires that are outside of BMW recommendation create any problems with warranty or insurance?
