Hey guys.
I've bought a set of 9J x 19" BMW 641M alloys for my M2C and have attempted to fit the fronts with no success. My car has the BBK and I recognize the BMW recommended alloy offset is 8.5J F and 9J R. I was surprised the front in a 9J don't seem to go over the brakes. Would the 8.5J fit? I know these alloys do fit the M2C with BBK so I'm surmising it's the fact I have 9J all round that the problem. Thanks in advance.

I do indeed have the M641 alloys in 19". The 9J doesn't seem to fit over the front BBK though. I know BMW recommended the 8.5J for the fronts bit the 9J are a 29 offset the same as the standard 788M.

I think it could be due to the fact I've got 9J for the front as opposed to 8.5J.
That's the only thing I can think of.

Yes they are OEM. Bought direct from BMW. I've enquired with them today so will see what they say back.
