18" are IMHO the best wheels offered anywhere for M4. They should be option for 1000$ and 19" free of charge if BMW is smart. No idea why anyone would pay premium for uglier, heavier and way to rigid ride on 19".
Also, I'll replace tyes with less ultra performance oriented Conti ExtremeDW 265/40 + 285/40 (I tried this combo on friends M3 and it drives like butter), which is still great performer with less compromise on ride quality.

I saw them on the f80 but you need to run a spacer up front (15-18 mm) to clear the front brakes from what I'm told.

That's what I'm talking about!! EDIT: Just saw your post in the other thread. How do you like the KW H.A.S kit?

gtrsam · 06-30-2015, 12:44 PM

I like them a lot. I think it drives like stock but I only drove around 300miles on the oem setup and around 200 miles on the KW. So far everything is good, no bounciness or abnormal sounds some were getting.

Yeah, I was running 15mm all around. Made the car look so different in a really good way.

Yeah, it def looks titties. Was considering 12mm front and 15mm rear but I reckon I'll just do 15 all around and call it a day.

Nice pics, nice car...thanks! By any chance, do you also have any from the side with spacers? I'm curious to see if bringing the tires out reduces the appearance of the fender gap, especially in the front. If the tires have a rounded shoulder, as I have heard, then it certainly could make a noticeable difference (I don't have my car yet).
