No problem.

The OEM tire widths and overall diameter is the same for 18, 19 and 20" wheels.

I am currently riding on the stock 19" staggered setup for my F30 M Sport with M-brake.

I am looking for some 18" CSL replicas for my winter setup and going to a square setup. Would 18x8" ET35 work for all four corners? I also plan to wrap the reps with some 225/45/19 winter tires.

I know there has been a lot of talk about the xDrive issue regarding the wheel setup, but I would like you guys to help me with my setup. Have a new F30 320d xDrive Luxury pack and stock suspension and would like to go with the next setup: front rims 19'' 8.5 et 35 235/35 R19 and rear rims 19'' 9.5 et 37 265/30 R19, would there be any issues with this setup, I really am not yet familiar with the calculations made to see what the right % bracket that I should be looking at, any help would be great, thanks!

Nice job with this list!

I hope my question is not off-topic, if so, my apologies.

I have 403M 19 inch wheels (225/40/19 and 255/35/19) on my 2013 335i M Sport

I would love to get some wider rubber (Michelin PSS) and 19 inch rims to get a flush fit without spacers (if possible) with no rubbing at all.

Can someone please guide me on what rim offsets and widths I should be looking for?

I am hoping that I can go with 235 front and 265 rear.

Much appreciated!

hey guys, I am trying to get a winter wheel/tire setup and it's driving me crazy.

I currently have a 335i M-Sport with Staggered Summer Tires stock.

Which would work better?

1. Square setup: 17x7.5 et 32 with 225/50R17 Blizzaks WS80
2. Square setup: 17x7.5 et 37 with 225/50R17 Blizzaks WS80

I'd go with the et 32, either option is fine though.

Hi guys, just wanted to get your thoughts on running a square set up wheels but staggared tires. 19 x 8.5 et 35 all around and basically the oem tire size. F- 225/40 and R- 255/35. trying to achieve a flush or slightly inner look. I have an msport lowered in HR sport springs. Thanks.

F 12mm and R 15mm make them closer to F30/F32 spec, but you can have even thicker spacers depending on how wide stance you like.

Not sure they will clear the calipers though.

225/40-18 is 3.5% shorter than OEM size (225/45-18) for F30/32.

It will affect your speedo and results in huge wheel gaps (at least if not lowered).

If your 441 wheels are staggered the rear tires will also look more stretched since the front wheels are 8" wide and the rears are 8.5".

8.5x19" ET will fit, extends 11mm compered to OEM 19" wheels.

10-12mm spacers are used by many members on stock wheels.

I'm running square 225/45/18 397s. Can I run a 255 on the 18x8" wheel in the rear without issues and mix it with 245s in the front without messing up the speedometer?

thanks!

Terminology?

I'm wondering what ET means in relation to wheel offset? I'm trying to figure out which setup is known to fit with no rubbing on a 2013 328i xDrive.

Thanks and great forum!
