I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with these wheels.

https://www.super-speed.ca/flowform-rf03rr

I have a 2016 m235i vert and have been looking to get a square 18x8 or 18x8.5 setup with 235 - 245 tires with no preferably no extra mods done to accommodate wheels.

Initially I was looking at the apex SM-10 since they have a silver finish which I prefer and are lightweight, however I've read the RF03RR are ~18.5 lbs which is lighter.

If anyone can lemme know if they have experience with this company or if they have any other suggestions for a similar 10 spoke lightweight wheel I would appreciate it.

Looking at the website it look like the 5x120 with our centerbore only come in +35 offset. That puts your tire about 5mm closer to the fender than the optimal +40 offset. 245 might work in the front assuming the tire you pick tends to be on the more narrow side, if not you might get fender rub on large bumps. 235 should be ok.

So I should probably order 5mm spacers just in case I want to try the 245?

Also should I just do camber plates at the same time to combat the outer tire wear issue?

I wouldn't. An 18x8.5et35 is an aggressive but possible fit in front if you stick to a 225 or 235 tire, or maybe even a 245 that runs narrow. A 5mm spacer would reduce that to an effective et30, and it probably wouldn't fit. You might be able to have a shop mill 5mm off, but I wouldn't do that until you talk to Superspeed about the wheel's strength and what it could tolerate. But that brings us to the second question...

Camber plates are a huge upgrade for these cars, especially if you track it. They also allow for a slightly more aggressive wheel and tire fitment, so it seems likely you could address the wear problem and set yourself up for a wider fitment at the same time by going this route.

But anyways, cool find. I haven't heard of these wheels before. They look great and they seem pretty light.

No. A 5mm spacer will turn a +45 offset wheel into +40. +35 is even further from the strut (closer to the fender) so a 5mm spacer will turn +35 into +30.... wrong direction
