Will my Vorsteiner VFF 103s from my M4 work for a winter setup on my new M2C?

My M4 was crushed recently in a rear end collision, so I ordered a 2021 M2C 6MT and picked it up yesterday. I really like it! I have this question. I was running a summer setup on my M4 with the following wheels . . .

VFF 103 Carbon Graphite
19x9.5 +22 5x120
19x10.5 +34 5x120

I love the stock M2 wheels so i am keeping my summer setup stock. I'd love to use the Vorsteiners for a winter setup. My first question is, will those wheels work on the M2C (I think so), and if so, what size winter tires would work given the wheel widths I have? I guess I am most concerned about the rears being that they are 10.5 wide and was wondering if that might be too wide for a winter setup. Anyway, I would appreciate it if anyone who knows could help me out. Here's a quick pic! Thanks.

I called Vortsteiner directly tonight and they said they would work perfectly. Still looking for tire suggestions but I am told by Vorsteiner stock tire sizes would be fine on these wheels as well.

I would use stock M4 size, 255/35/19 and 275/35/19. Lots of us are using this size on stock wheels so will fit with no problem on your Vortsteiner.

Hi there,

Did you manage to fit the wheels? I am looking into some and I also have the 2NH ( the big break kit) and wondering what specs from these will fit. If you have any pictures that would be great. Thanks!

No!!!! Despite their assurances, the fronts rubbed the liners immediately it wasn’t even close.

Was this with winter tires? I've gotta believe the winter tread width is what did you in. What is the measurement of the tread width of the tire you went with?
