Richland Forged RF-GT4: “Project Nürburg” Release

[Lifestyler]

Any pics from installing this wheels on the 400mm bbk?

Why don't they make the rear 11" so you can run 305's. May as well retain stock 10's with spacers given that you can't maximise tyre sizes with a 10.5". A 285 looks too narrow on an M4 from the rear I think and really needs a 305.

[Lifestyler]

Yes that's it... Do a 10 front 11 rear and many ppl buy.

I think a 10" front and 11.5" rear is good for people looking for an extreme set up BUT it requires a specific suspension set up. A lot of people will run into rubbing issues with a 10" front. Of all the wheel set ups I've had, a 9.5" front and 10.5" rear is the most ideal. It can fit a 305 in the rear easily (I ran that on my Advans). But a 265 front and 295 rear will stay closer to the OEM diameter ratio and will interfere less with the DSC. 305 is good for the rear but it essentially makes the front and rear the exact same diameter which is not ideal for DSC. You get zero benefit from an 11" wheel vs a 10.5" wheel unless you can get a deeper concavity with the 11". Not many wheel companies maximize the concavity for an 11"; most of the time, it's just making the pad on the wheel thicker. Basically, you're just adding more weight with an 11" wheel.

I'm debating a 285 or 295 on the back.

The concavity of this wheel is a little more obvious when compared with the 763M wheels....looked great! He brought a sampling of other finishes and all of them look fantastic. The brushed finishes were really nice and had some complexities to them that were really unique and refreshing to see. Overall quality looked very good.

I will for sure be buying a set this upcoming spring and posting back results, including experience with track use.

Are they going to have proper +45 rear offset for M2 ?
Have to put skinny tire on with +35

U can run on m2 c 10. 5x19 et 35 with 275/35 np

stock tire is stretched on 10'' 275 on 10.5 is worse

[DanMpower]

Love my Satin Dark Titanium finish.

These are 275/30/20 and 295/30/20 btw.

[FreeDarko]

Any chance for running OEM sizes for the M2 Competition with more aggressive offsets?

9.5 front 22 offset with a 265/35x19 and 11 rear 43 offset with a 305/30x19 fits perfectly without rubbing and specific suspension. Exactly the same diameters don't interfere with the DSC and it's same as a square winter setup. The advantage of an 11" rear with a 305, is a 305 doesn't comply with the tyre and rim code on a 10.5" wheel, a 305 is too wide for 10.5" and 11" is the minimum legal width.

Not sure where you live that it is illegal to run a 305 on a 10.5". And a 305 wheel range is 10.5-11.5.

Aussies can't even drive on spacers. I'm not surprised there's restrictions on tire width.

Now available in Satin Titanium!

295 is the widest tyre permitted on a 10.5" wheel in Australia unless it's factory fitment like a 295 on a 10" wheel like an F10 M5

International shipping available? Any plans on releasing gloss black?

[TUNEDM3]

Do you have a 19 inch application for the M2C?

[richlandforged]

Gloss black is listed and available as an option on our website. There is a current order that is being completed in this finish as we speak! We are currently only shipping domestically (U.S), as we havent landed a carrier in which costs are feasible.

Yes, the 19x9.5 barrel profile has been redesigned for clearance with the M2C brake profile and CCB profile. Clearance was successfully confirmed a few weeks ago. Reports of M2 users using 12mm spacers on stock wheels successfully as such fitment is possible on the M2. Likely a careful slightly stretched tire size in combo with a bit of camber adjustment, would fit like a glove!
