Probably easier to do than 19 or 20 inch. I haven't seen any such set ups though. But I would use the 19" setup on page 1 but make it 18"

Hi guys!

Looking to get new wheels on my F80. I have Macht Schnell springs.
Would this setup work??
20x10.5 ET20 with 275/30/19 PSS front
20x11.5 ET30 with 295/30/20 PSS rear

Thanks!

The front will be fine. The rear would likely be too aggressive. You need an offset of around 40 with that width especially if you aren't running stock suspension.

You're gonna have a bad time on the front as well. The front wheel "might" hit the shock perch on the inside. And even if it didn't, it would stick out past the fender on the outside.

Check out Kitw's car below. He is running a 19x10 ET25 on the front. At 20x10.5 ET20, your's will stick out an additional 11mm.

Wrong offsets + width combo.

Either 10.5 ET30 or 10 ET25 front, either 11.5 ET45 or 11 ET40 rear. Flush look.

Not sure about the 10.5 ET30 on the front. Although it would sit with a little poke on the outside, the inside will most like make contact with the suspension.

Is anyone running 10.5 in the front? The widest I've seen is 10.

I have BC Forged RS41's which are 10" front with 265/35R19 and 305/30/R19 on 11.5" wheels on rear - the BC forged are setup that you do not need spacers to get a fairly flush look to the body (honestly forget the equivalent et that is set in on these wheels but a quick query to Eric at PuSpeed would get the info). Had 295/30 initially on rear but different section height and the 305's are a near perfect match to the front section height.

It may rub, you may be correct.

Good set up. 265/35/19 and 305/30/19 has the exact same diameter. It's what I ordered for my wheels as well.

Any Way to get these wheels in a Matte Bronze color

I have personally fit a 19x10.5 +22 up front with -3 camber using a 295/30/19 tire. It fit great in terms of inner and outer clearance with the camber. This is a great fitment considering the camber I was running for the track.

That being said.

I am considering a 19x11 +19 up front with -3.5 camber and a 305/30/19. This would have about the same inner clearance as my previous setup, and with the additional half degree of camber up front, outer clearance should work.

Is that stock height?

These look like they may be mildly lowered.

[mercedesc63]

The biggest tire setup I saw was 325 rear and 295 front on 20" wheels. This is on a f80 m3 that is lowered.

I would say it was highly modified to fit those tires and I would also say it still rubs even after mods.

[mose121]

Anyone know if it's possible to run 275/30/20 fronts and 295/30/20 rears on the F80 M3 OEM M666 ZCP wheels without any rubbing or DSC issues? Car is stock, not lowered and I have no plans to do so. Only suspension mod I'm planning to do is camber plates.

I want to fit 295/30/19 to front as well and 305/30/19 to rear. It seems like this was your setup,did you have any rubbing problems and which tires you were using? Which suspensions are you using, I'm using KW CS 2ways, I wonder if they will rub.. Did you need any spacers?
