could use some advice please

Im currently running eibach lowering springs and 14mm spacers on my oem wheels on my 2021 M2C. I like the way it looks but am wanting to get some after market wheels remove the spacers and go wider on the tyres. Any recommendations as to what size (widest) wheels and tyres front and rear I should go without having rubbing/scraping issues? I’ve been searching for a long time but am just out of my league when it comes to this. Any help would be much appreciated

If that much research hurts your brain, don't mess with trying to max out wheels and tires.

Read through all the pages for the M2 Wheel thread and review forum members posts’ that have setups you like:
https://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1364055

Picking a wheel you like is easy, you just have to make sure it clears the front brakes unless you’re switching them out for something like AP Racing offers. An important thing that helped me was learning what the tire sizes meant.

Stock tires: front 245/35/19, rear 265/35/19
  • First Number - Width of the tire
  • Second Nimber - Aspect Ratio of the tire (measured from the edge of the rim of the metal and outwards, think of this like the height of the tire)
  • Third Number - Rim Diameter

Navy Davy. Thanks heaps mate I’ll suss that out. I’m going to get the millteck camber plates first and the wheel size I’m sort of looking at is 19x9.5 ET22 front and 19x10.5 ET45 rear. That should give me clearance but now I just need to figure out the widest tyre size I can go without rubbing or issues with those eibach lowering springs I have installed. Still need to do a lot more research though. A mate has suggested also getting adjustable front/rear drop links but not sure if that’s just overkill or something I should also look into

BBS tuner fitment is 19X9.5 et 25 and 19X10.5 et 35. I am not sure your wheels will fit. I am running those with 255/35/19 and 275/35/19 PS4Ss. But you have a inner lining so they may rub on an M2C that is lowered. I am at stock hight. .
