Anyone running 275/30/20 up front?

Coloradom3 · 05-16-2016, 04:55 PM

Hey everyone,

Just as my title states I'm curious if any of you are running 275/30/20 tires on your 20" wheels. I currently have what most are running 255/30/20 but they seem too small, they have the rubberband look that I'm not a fan of. Im currently lowered on macht schnell springs. For those that run run the 275 setup up front and are lowered, have you had any rubbing issues? Satisfied?

What's your wheel spec? It'll fit easily with the right specs. We have a 285/35/19 on the front of our F80 with no rub.

Awesome thanks man! You satisfied? Would you for any reason prefer a 265?

Wheels are 9.5" up front, 10.5" in rear.

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.

Yes absolutely. That's a very common combo. I run it with V3's and don't rub.

I test fitted a 20x10 et18 w/ 275/30/20 pss up front and it rubbed on lock on the inner fender liners. prob have to go w/ a 265/30/20.

This is a problem of offset and width, not of the tire size.

are your wheels the same size and offset as the zcp M666 wheels? Was hoping to find someone that had installed them on the stock wheels.

I'm running it on stock. No rubbing. I checked full lock in both directions. Got underneath and shined a light in there... it's close, but nothing is rubbing. And this is full height of the tire, so presumably it will get even more room as the tires wear

I'm also running 275 - 295 on 666 with a little 'french-kiss' rub on the driver's side liner at about 9 o'clock position
