Also, tire rack seems to suggest the setup for ZCP cars is not square (believe 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 rear?) Do I need that? I'd like to be able to rotate the wheels for obvious reasons. |

No you do not have to have a staggered set up, you can do a square set up. Also You can rotate if you have an 18 or an 19 set up. It's just that to be able to rotate you should probably have square set up and the same tires.

Everyone who has expressed interest so far. The group buy pricing/deal is now announced and in the feeler phase. Please go to the following link and build your preferred package. There is no commitment to buy when you build your preferred package. Everything is not 100.00% set in stone. Some things could be modified before it goes live.
Even if you took the survey, you still have to go to the groupbuy website and build your package. https://www.groupbuyparts.com/index....e-gb-2016.html

I completed the feeler but I don't really know what I am looking for in terms of sizing. I'll just go with whatever the popular square setup is. However, I'll say this - is $200 off all we should be expecting for a large group buy? This is my first F80 (and thus first experience with the "M tax"), but when I have participated in previous automotive group buys the discounts were always greater than roughly 10%.

I also spoke to the members who organized last years group buy and have their prices. We are not paying more. We have more tire choices as well this year compared to last year. i did a lot of searching out there and overall i am happy with this. I will be going with the 18' 9 inch wide ET 31 and michelin 245/45/18 setup

The discount is much bigger. Total value is $450~ off. Shipping is free which is worth $150. Mounting and balancing is free. OEM Huff TPMS sensors are discounted. Other hardware is discounted. We couldn't set the site up to charge full price for everything and then apply the discount. That would have been perfect for this deal. Thanks for the feedback, we'll let the site know the current format creates some confusion, and makes a great deal look mediocre. EDIT: On Monday we'll sent notice to everyone from the survey. Anyone who listed "I don't know" for wheel or tire sizes will be contacted by a product expert so that we can provided a tailored fitment recommendation.

I will be getting apex EC7 18x9 ET31 Michelin X-ice 245-45-18 TPMS BMW roundels The width is narrower yes, but a narrower tire will negotiate through the snow better. Are you looking for studless Ice and snow or performance winter?

Eddy - I think I missed the "I don't know" option when I completed the feeler on my phone. However, I definitely would love some input from a specialist re sizing. As to the exact sizes, I really don't know what would be best. And what are the differences between all the TPMS sensors? I just chose the first gunmetal one on the list, but have no idea how it differs from the other gunmetal ones. Also, what do you all think about colors for a SO F80? I am thinking anthracite, but having trouble finding pictures of that combination online. Last edited by F1fan; 09-10-2016 at 11:20 AM.. |

Confused
I am a bit confused.
Can I just use my current hardware (lug nuts ) to mount the winter wheel/tires? I have a 2016 M4 and hope that just the TPMS would be the only options needed. Am I right ?? Thanks |

Same with the spacers, I believe these set ups can fit without the need for them but some people may prefer the look. All I am getting is the wheels, tires, and tpms

Is the price showing up incorrectly for anyone else? I went in to add TPMS and roundels and now it shows an estimated price of $1301.44 for the following package:
18x9" ET31 Anthracite 245/45-18 X-Ice 36-10-6-856-209 TPMS (this is the correct sensor for F80, right?) Roundels |

There are TPMS sensors for various vehicles listed. It's not an easy to follow list if you don't know your part number. You'll be told exactly what to get. I'll see if Ryan can update his fitment article to include the right ones. Quote:

Note to others: The discount will also need to be selected from the drop down before the final price is shown. Quote:
You are 100% correct. Every accessory is totally optional including TPMS. These wheels work with factory hardware, and almost everyone will want TPMS. To be clear. Your car comes with lug bolts, not lug nuts. Lug bolts are listed there as an accessory because if anyone orders spacers they will need the corresponding extended length lugs to make them work. Those drop-downs are for various length lugs. Unfortunately we can't hide that stuff from the view of people who don't need them.
