Stock suspension? Any rubbing?

This is one of the most commonly used wheel setups on the f8x. The rear 19x11et44 works with stock and aftermarket suspension setups. The front 19x10et25 may require a 5 mm spacer to clear different suspension setups.

Spoke to several people that are very knowledgeable as well as Bimmerworld who setup my coilover system.
They both suggested that a 265 35 could work on the front but the 275 30 would give a larger contact patch and would help with the tight clearances up front.

I will report back on the tires as i put more miles on them. So far they are very stiff and direct.

You are correct sir!!!!
I had a 5mm spacer ready to go on the front, but i didn't need it. My concern was the clearance between the spring perch and the tire....but we had a little bit of wiggle room once it got all bolted up.

So 18x10et22 (or et25) will work up front on stock suspension with lowering springs running a 265/35 tire WITHOUT rubbing? I'm in the process of purchasing wheels & I'm contemplating running 18x10et22 or 18x9.5et20 up front. I'd prefer the x10 setup but I see a lot of companies offering x9.5 (Volks, BBS, etc) options for these cars for suspension clearance I assume. Eventually I'll switch to coils with camber plates

18x10et25-22 with a 265/35 on stock suspension should have sufficient clearance with zero rubbing. A 275/35 on 18” wheels is another option. However, you’ll likely have to use a heat gun to reshape the front fender liner to reduce/eliminate rubbing as you increase steering angle. Certain aftermarket suspensions will need a 5 mm spacer on the 10et25 or a 3 mm spacer no one offers a 2 mm spacer ) on the 10et22. A commonly used front track setup is a 10.5et35 with a 15-18 mm spacer and a 285/35 or 295/30 on certain suspension setups (e.g, MCS 2WR or 3WR with a 5” long 800 lbf/in main spring + helper spring & -3.5 to -4.0 deg of camber). 18x9.5et20 with a 265/35 works with stock and aftermarket suspensions with no rubbing. My front track setup is 18x10.5et35 with 15 mm spacer & 295/30 and my front street setup is 19x9.5et22 & 275/35.
