Talking Recommended size for 20" Vorsteiner VFF-103 with tires

Hi

I am looking to get a set of 20" Vorsteiner VFF-103 with probably Michelin Pilots for my 2016 M4.

What is the recommended tire size and wheel size (with offset) for this set up?

I DO NOT have the CCB's.

Thanks in advance

Many similar setups use 265/30R20 front and 295/30R20 rear. Gives no rubbing issues and gives enough sidewall 'meat'. Wider in the back gives rubbing and you have to go with 305/25 to prevent this.

If you do a 295/30 and 305/25 side to side comparison for rear wheels, I prefer the 295! Of course, this is personal preference.

I actually decided i may go for 19" now due to the harsh ride factor of the 20"


So, can someone help with 19" tire size

I assume if i get the 19" Vorsteiner 103 i would go with 19x9.5 fronts and 19x10.5 rears

How about tire size?

265/35/19
295/35/19 is the way to go?

I want to keep close to stock as possible. I dont track or anything.

Thanks

I went with your exact 265/295 combo with 19 inch vff-103's.

I highly recommend

19x9.5 ЕТ20 on MPSS 265/35/19 (26.3 diameter)
19x11 ЕТ 40 on MPSS 305/30/19 (26.3 diameter)

I am at ET21 and ET41 so the above recommendation will give you even a more flushed look.

There are multiple combinations you can run:

19" options include:

275/30/19 | 295/30/19



265/35/19 | 285/35/19

265/35/19 | 305/35/19



20"

255/30/20 | 305/25/20



265/30/20 | 295/30/20



Images above of each tire set up mentioned.

The fitment recommended by Vorsteiner are highlighted in bold, however the fitment that match the OEM rolling diameter difference or come as close as possible are highlighted in blue.

Most people feel more comfortable running set ups that are as close to stock rolling diameter.

Thank you very much for sharing this information! This should be a sticky but before it becomes one, could you please also add the different wheel sizes that are recommended for each setup.

Did you mean to say 265/35/19 and 305/30/19 because that's a very popular setup as well?
