Wheel help please
Wheel question... so I want lightweight wheels for my 2018 Lci M240i for the following sizes give or take 1 or 2mm on the Offset.
Style wise I like the Apex EC-7, so similar to that. They need to fit with the BMW M Performance brakes too. Anyone know of any? Front: 18" 8J ET40 Rear: 18" 8.5J ET47 As I only want to go to the following tyre sizes, do not buy ant to use spacers and am not interested in changing suspension or camber, may requirements are quite simple. I also dint want 8.5, 9 or 9.5 J wheels Tyre sizes I want: Front: 235 /40 Rear: 255 /35

There are some great vendors on here that can help you get close with these specifics. To get exactly what you want you may need to go custom offsets. There are several brands out there that allow that. I see you are in England. Probably a good idea to check with a solid local shop that is experienced with BMW Fitment. Good luck in your search!

Price was not one of the criteria you listed.

Lol. Just search UK supplies and it's cheaper and no import tax either. Quite tempted to go for it. Quite a lot of poke on the rear wheel. Will they take a 255 tyre without rubbing on oem suspension?

I had a 255/35 on an 18x8.5 ET38 and now I have a 265/35 on an 18x9.5 ET53 w/o issues.
So, a 255/35 on an 18x9 ET44 should be fine. You can add more negative camber in the rear if needed, because it is adjustable, unlike the front.

I don't want to dial in more camber. I want to be sure the 255 will fit with OEM set up with a 9j et44
