It looks more even with 12.5f/10r but you really have to be a nitpicker like me to see the difference. No problems with fender clearance either way with stock tire size.

I run 10mm front and back and am lowered on Ohlins. My front winter tires in the stock 245/35/19 size rub when the wheels are turned. Tires are Michelin PA4.
Thinking of either getting 5mm spacers in the front or running 235/35 in the front. I will post back with my results.

M2 Competition here lowered on Eibachs with stock wheel/tire setup. Running 7.5mm spacers all around.
Anyone else running similar setup and experiencing rubbing. I'm getting it on turns. I'm assuming there are vents on the M2c that wasn't there on the M2 that's causing the rub on lock. |

Yep. Running 12mm front spacer and KW V3 on M2C and getting rubbing at full lock on RHD drivers side. It’s minor and no damage to tyre so I’m prepared to live with it. You can probably avoid it by using no spacer on stock wheels but then it wouldn’t look anywhere near as good. 👍🏽

I think that’s exactly it. I presume different fender liners due to the different cooling layouts between engines.
It’s very prevalent on RHD cars I’m assuming. I laugh when I see guys asking to put 255/265’s up front when I’m rubbing with just 245’s and spacers! |

If on the other hand your goal is just to be more flush, but without more tread width, you still need the same approach but you'll be able to add larger spacers before hitting the liner.

The spacers I’ve added are purely for visual appeal. However, please see thread below where the problem is apparent on other RHD M2C’s as well.
https://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1624545 As I said, it’s liveable and hasn’t had any impact on the tyre wear or fender liner. I do plan to raise mine as it’s visually better (in my eyes) once the car is at a slightly higher height. Still lower than stock but not as low as how others like it (slammed etc). |

hey guys, Quick question for all of you. I got a great deal on a set of Michelin PS4S and they are 255/35/19 square
my question is what spacers do you think I can run on the stock 437 wheels? car is on Eibach springs and don't want it to rub as it is my daily. Thinking 5 up front and 20 in the rear due to the wider size in front and the skinnier size than factory in the back? Curious your thoughts. |

Also don't forget that people run different different alignments. I used to be happy with 10f/7.5r on stock alignment.
After I got camber plates and running very mild 1.85 in the front I needed to bump it up to 15f/7.5r to look even. |

Ok so I just got my Vorsteiner ff 103 wheels which are the recommended size at 19x9.5 et 22 front (equivalent to a 13.4mm spacer) and 19x10.5 et 40 rear (equivalent to a 6.4mm spacer). They said to use stock tires but I have a feeling my stock Contis would look too stretched! So I'm thinking of going with 255x35 front and 275x35 rear. What do you guys think? Should I expect any issues? Car is stock height.
