For comparison, if I put the stock front 437M wheel on the car with 30mm worth of spacers it’s almost at the same position as a stock F80. Thats the only way to get the wheel to clear, after that you just need a short tire like 295/30, or equivalent slick. I ran the 315/30 r888r for a while but don’t like the pinched feel on an 11” wheel.

Alignment is normal track-like specs. ~7 caster, -3 camber, 0 toe. SAI and scrub radius are a lot higher than normal F8x cars, steering rack programming is important.
for a stock M4 with standard brakes (stock shocks with KW HAS KIT), do you know what size of spacer is required to clear the calipers?

I am not looking to track the car just love the look of the wheels and they are a good bargain for the price.

Planning on running a 285/35 or 295/30 tire. I plan on running the necessary camber of course.
