I will use stock tires on my new wheels. The car turns like its on rails and has no real issues with traction so wider tires and wheels are just weight for me.

Ah that makes more sense. I thought you meant anyone running 11.5" rear is all show no go. If the M2 can fit 10" front, it would pair well with 11.5". 285f 315r

In case nobody had seen these just yet

Don't be left with OEM wheels on your M2 that BMW just went into the M3/M4 parts bin for - Place your orders fellas, I'm here for you all

11.5" is all show and no go.

Why is that? Wider width enables wider tires to be mounted. With proper set up, it should provide more contact patch to pavement.

Going with a wheel 2" wider in the rear will allow a much wider tire and indeed much more contact patch at the rear. All this extra grip at the rear is great for traction and launching and smoky burnouts. Also looks cool with dished out rears. However , when you are hustling into a corner, on back roads or a track the car will understeer... Check that.. *Plow* ... With a 50 mmm wider tire in the rear.

If you want the car to still corner, put as much tire as you can up front first ...

Well then it would absolutely kick ass, like a 1M..

Yep, they confirmed 265 up front so I'll be running 9.5"/265 and 11"/295. The ratio is pretty close to stock. There was no way I was gonna do 255/305.

what is the pricing and how does it compare to the MPE in terms of quality, sound, weight, finish, etc.

Wickedly · 06-21-2016, 09:50 PM

What color is this? I know this is a P101 too if I'm correct

I can't speak for the M Performance Exhaust but if you've seen the history behind Akrapovic and their titanium racing exhausts for both motorcyles and cars then you already know that their systems are arguably the best in the world. Performance gains, looks, sound, and impeccable craftsmanship - it checks all the boxes. All you have to do it ask a member or two on these forums and they can attest. We're talking about the best in the business here.

I'll DM pricing shortly.

Pricing on P101's depends on two factors: size & finish. Will DM you now with some options.

This will be good for track and open back roads as well?

That's the plan. Not a good autocross setup but I don't do that. Should be great for everything else.

BBS FI-R only come in 19 x 9.5 ET 22 Front and 19 x 10.5 ET 35 Rear.

Anyone know if this setup will let the wheels sit flush or inside the fender?

Thanks!
