763M wheels .. 19"/19" or 19"/20"

[JTM09]

For the 763M wheels, M2 specs are for 19" in front and rear, but M3/M4 specs show 20"s in the rear. Both are 10" wide in the rear I believe.

Anyone running 763s 19"/19" on an M3? Trying to justify the extra expense for 20"s in the rear, or would 19"s all around be better. I know the CS has 19/20. Thoughts?

Curious about this, dont really want to run 19/20, so a 19/19 setup would be ideal.

19/19 will be lighter for sure than 19/20. If you want to run wide tires in the back (295+) then there are better tire options for the 20 inch rear rim in terms of diameter stagger and tread width in MP4S that may not activate DSC as much. Otherwise you pretty much have to go with the 285/35 or 305/30 in the rear only on the 19, but a 295/30/20 is perfect for the 20 inch rear on the F80 with a 265/35/19 up front.

So if I go with 19s front and back ..
265/35/19 F
285/35/19 R

Can’t see much benefit to 20” in the rear. Unless it looks much better?

I can get a smoking deal on the tire + wheel set from Bmw. But sport cups on a daily driver ...?

Leaning toward continental extreme contact sports.

That size is the exact way to go for 19s all around. Haven't driven on sport cups because live in a colder environment and have been happy with MPSS's...So that part I can't comment on...

^thanks man, I think that is what I'm going with.

I'm on 19/19 with factory tire sizes.
Sometimes I wish I would have got the 20" rears but I'm pretty happy with the handling at the moment.

Factory for the 19” would be 265/35/19 and 245/35/19… correct?

The tire sizes you posted are for the 19in 763 wheels meant to fit the M2. The set sold for theM3/M4 are 19/20in and it has 265/35-19 and 285/30-20 sizes. The wheel width and offset are the same so you can also fit those size tires in 19's. You can also run tire sizes for OEM 437: 255/35-19 and 275-35-19. Your choice.

I have an 2018 F80 M3 with 513m wheels. BMW sells 763M package wheels and tires 19 x 9.5 fronts and 19 x 10 rears. Do you still have your M3, and what were your thoughts on the driving experience with the 763m in 19/19?

I ran the above mentioned 19" x4 for a good while, not issues at all.

I currently run the 19 x2 20x2 set up on my CS. I really don't notice that much of a difference at all under daily use. I think you'll be happy either way

Thanks!
