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? Last edited by Panchoa; 03-31-2018 at 07:38 AM.. |

There was a thread about this recently:
OEM F8x 437m or 513m - Any UK members running these? https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1464167 |

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. |

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 |

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