Which Wheels & Size for M2 Build

M2PDX · 05-02-2018, 10:56 AM

New question.... with my stock 245/35 fronts and 265/35 rear tires, would a 19 x 9.5 front wheel and 19 x 10.5 rear wheel work? I really want the tire/wheel to look tight, and don't want the wheel to look like it's sticking out past the side of the tire. But 305Forged has an Ft101 wheel that l99ks like the 763, and is LIGHT!

THOUGHTS????
..........

Ok fellow enthusiasts,

I just bought a BSM, 6MT, 2017 M2, less than a year old, with 5482 miles. Oil changed twice already. One owner, who got it through European Delivery. He is #1 on his dealer's list for an M2 Competition, and I convinced him to part with it a little early at a very good price.

I have a budget, and will be adding a few enhancements. Several parts are on the way, and a new color is in the works. A couple of changes will lighten the car a bit (i.e. lithium battery, etc.).

I like the stock wheels, and will keep them for track days. But I want to do an AFFORDABLE set of all black wheels. I'd love to get BBS F1s, or HREs, but those cost a ton, and I can't afford it. Must be 19s. And I want to find them in a size that will accommodate my existing low mileage stock tires (Continentals, unfortunately. I'll switch to Michelins when these wear out).

So, here are three options. There are two pictures of each wheel, in order they are:

1) Verde AX (Closest I can find to the Style 763 M3 CS wheels, but little more concave) +2 - 3 lbs. over stock.

2) Beyern Antlers (I kind of like these. They look like a better version of the Competition wheel). +1 lb over stock

3) Advanti Hybris (LIGHT, and I've talked to a couple owners who have them and love them). - 2-4 lbs below stock.

Let's try a poll.

Which wheels are mounted on the white car in your pictures? Those are hot.

Congrats on the new (to you) M2.

I think it's an 340i.

Sorry, I meant which wheels in your poll are on that car?

Those are the ones I want to vote for.

Beyern.

amancuso · 05-02-2018, 05:53 PM

Beyern Antlers for sure.

Yes, they do look good!

Look into Vorsteiner FF (flow forged) series. They're reasonably priced and high quality.

I’m in agreement vorsteiner vff 107 which are similar to the Breyton but are better in my opinion

akkando · 05-03-2018, 04:17 PM

The 437m look better than the other three I would just use those all the time on BSM but if you must.....

Verde Axis look the best of the three. My second choice would be Adventi Hybris for the weight savings as I can't stand either the Beyern Antler or the Adventi Hybris.

Yes I like them, but they only come in 19 X 10.5s in the rear, which my stock (and almost new) rear tires would not fit.

I also liked the 305Forged FT101s, but they don't have an offset that works.

I ran the stock 265s on VFF107s for about 9k miles

Interesting results so far. 305forged has a design similar to the Verde Axis, the FT101, but 6 - 7 lbs lighter. It only comes in a 19 x 9.5, and 19 x 10.5.

Is that going work with my stock wheels, or will the wheel protrude past the sidewall of the tire?
