19” 437m wheels

Hi all

I have my eye on a set of 437m alloys off an m4 i think but the tyres on them are 9J x 255/35/19 and 10J x 275/35/19

Will these fit on a f30 with standard m sport suspension?

They will “fit” without rubbing with OEM F80 tyre sizes if your car is RWD. If it’s x-Drive then no as the rolling circumference will be wrong.

HOWEVER the poke would look ridiculous with stock ride height. Even worse if it’s an x-Drive (ignoring the tyre issue already covered)

I have 245/35 & 265/35 (OEM M2 spec) on a RWD car lowered on H&R’s with zero rubbing issues.

When you say POKE, do you mean how much they will stick out the wheel arches?

No, because tyres are not simply 10mm wider - you also have an increase in sidewall to contend with.

If you want to fit OEM 437m you have to be prepared to invest in lowering the car (to introduce a sensible level of camber) to bring the wheel under the arch & also you need to fit the correct tyres for your application!

If you really lowered the car on coilovers I do think you could do 255/35 & 275/35 if you wanted.

What is the rationale for not wanting to use different sized tyres?!

Ok mate. Thanks. Just cant be arsed to buy new tyres as the set comes with the standard tyre sizes included. Buying new tyres will bump up the cost way past what i would want to spend

Oh well never mind

Why not just sell the tyres they come with to recoup some funds?

If they don’t need a refurb that’s a decent price!

245/35 & 265/35 MPSS will be around £750

Do you mean you prefer the meaty sidewalls of 255/35 & 275/35?

They do look good in that size but 245/35 & 265/35 also look like a good fit on them, the OEM M2 fitment.

Yes. Like a bit of an aggressive look. The 245 / 265 being less wide will reduce some tramline. So better combination.
