Avant Garde M359
Hi All,
I just picked up my new to me OG LCI M2 and it needs a new set of tires. Figured I might as well get a new set of wheels at the same time. I have always loved the E9x M3 zcp wheels but searching tells me the rear offset of the OEM BMW 359 wheel is iffy on the M2. I see there were a ew M359 reps out there, namely Avant Garde and Strom, but Strom looks to be NLA leaving AG as the sole remaining manufacturer. Folks seemed to have mentioned AG in past threads but I couldn't find any real world examples or pics of people running them. Fronts are available in 19x9 ET18 or ET35 Rears in 19x10 ET25 or ET38 Curious which offsets folks would choose on a stock suspension M2. I may also lower at some point, but nothing crazy. I could go with the conservative offsets (35 front and 38 rear) and then tune with spacers if needed for a flush look. Having said that, I'm concerned with caliper clearance and losing concavity with the conservative offsets. I'm guessing the ET25 in the rear would poke too much, but what about the ET18 in front (only 11mm deeper than stock)? If anyone has run the 19" Avant Garde M359s, I'd love to know the specs and if they encountered any clearance issues. Thx
