One thing I've noticed is the lack of push or understeer with the meatier front tires. Even in the rain it's very noticeable. Car just grips. The 265s in the back really make the rear feel planted and glued as well. It's very noticable. I think the front fitment is perfect. It's flush and looks great. Will probably look better when I get the M3 LCAs on. The rear, like I've said, poke a little. Nothing I can't live with. Glad I saved the $500+ over getting them pushed in 5mms. Can't wait for the weather to clear up.

Wish I could fit at least 255 on the stock rims but they are already maxed out at 255 With the rain and some 21k worn down PSSs the dsc light looks like s Christmas tree when you try to accelerate from s turn |

On your setup, try 12mm rear and 5mm front. If memory serves me right, you have ET45 front and ET 58 rear.

Yeah some people said if you track the car it's bad to have spacers. Not sure if it's myth or not. I guess if it's hubcentric and need bolts are installed it should be good. So you have the Turner stuff? http://www.turnermotorsport.com/BMW-F22/c-16-bmw-wheels.aspx |

I got my 5mm spacers from Apex after being given wrong information on fitment.

To OP: your picture of the car doesn't say much, please show us the poking aiming your camera parallel, not from beneath

Didn't know I was supposed to post a specific shot just for you.

No it isn't. I was talking about a level rear view. And I said it would be helpful to us, not just myself.
Thanks, anyway

im glad you are pursuing the 265 rear. I will be ordering wheels very soon and would like nothing more than to run a 235 and 265. I'm debating on whether to go with 18's or 19's leaning towards 18's for performance but 19's fill the well much better. tough decisions would you mind taking a side shot, from the rear down the side of the car showing poke mainly on rear wheel? thinking about an ET 40 or ET50 then use spacer to accommodate. car looks great BTW.

Sorry guys. Had two surgeries lately so don't get out much. This was in between hip replacements and had a day to get out - got intercooler installed and dynoed.
This is the most recent shot of the car with the wheel/tire setup. Another from shortly after wheels installed. Apex staggered 18s and PSS 225F/265R. |

They swore up and down that 235 would be no issue up front but were hesitant about 265 in rear... 255 rear was guaranteed however. |

Also, I'll PM you on for spacers that I think you should get. Don't feel like you cash out for something as simple as spacers and bolts. Hopefully then you can start running a 235 front!

I used a measuring stick to get it as parallel as I could. You can see how much it pokes. I'm pretty sure the if the wells actually got low enough, would I doubt they would, the resulting camber would actually tuck them in.
