Thanks. Gonna get in touch with them.

Just bought a set of V801's in Sunken Treasure in staggered fitment, cannot wait for them to get here!

18x8.5 et35 front
18x9.5 et45 rear

Stock suspension

VMR is suggesting I stick with a 225/40/18 in the front to ensure to rubbing.
I see conflicting info on the fitment of the 235/40/18.
I'd really like a 235 if possible.

Would moving to a 235/35/18 clear suspension and not rub the fenders?

EDIT:
Looking at TireRack.com it shows
Stock MPSS 225 having a treadwidth of 7.9
The MPS4 225 look to be narrower at 7.7
The MPS4 in 235 shows to be 8.1

I wonder if a MPS4 235/40/18 would fit in front on stock suspension with no rubbing since it runs a little narrow.

Please post pics! I am very curious to see the "Sunken Treasure" color on Estoril Blue, the best color ever!

Because of the lighting conditions, these pictures don't exactly capture the depth of the color but they should hold you over until tennisfreak posts up some pictures!

Anyone know if i'd be able to fit 19x9.5 ET40 in the rear when i'm on dinan springs?

[lnoble]

On stock suspension would 18 by 9.5 vmr v710 wheels with an offset of 45mm fit on my 2017 bmw 230i with track package and m sport package. And for the front 18 by 8.5 with an offset of 35mm.

And should i get same offset front and back even if my rear rims are an inch wider.

[tennisfreak]

Just posting I'm stoked for my new wheels!!

Waiting to hear from VMR that they are ready for shipment!

Those sizes will both fit on your 230i. You can run a 225/40/18 front and 255/35/18 rear on those V710's! In the rear, to compensate for the wider wheel, you'll need the higher 45 offset. This positions the extra width on the inside rather than outside of the fenders.

Any day now! Looking forward to seeing some pictures.

Placed an order for a set of V710’s in the satin bronze color way, which will be going on an alpine white 235. Stock suspension as I am waiting for Black Friday sales to pick up the Dinan suspension parts...now to carefully calculate my tire wear and time it just right to use up as much of the old 18” tires before the 19”s get here.

With a 45 offset which is less than the 52 I currently have, the rear wheels would be pushed out more. Plus I'm getting wheels an inch and half wider so that would also push them out more. Therefore, the wheel would be sticking out past the fender, so wouldn't the tire and fender rub, causing body damage?

There's no doubt that they will be more aggressive than your stock wheels. As the suspension is compressed, the wheel will camber in and avoid the fender. You can flip through this thread to see what this fitment in both 18 and 19 inch configurations at various different ride heights.

I know of a few ways you can easily use the rest of those tires up!

I’m sure you have been asked this 100 times so I apologize in advance.

Do you have any customers running 19x8.5 et35 v710ff 225 tire front and 235 back with H&R sport springs without rubbing on an m240xi?

We have customer's running a wide variety of lowering springs and coilovers. Because your car is an xDrive car, you'll want to run either 225 on all four corners of a square setup. You can also run a 19x9.5 ET45 with a 255/30/19 in order to keep your rolling diameters in check.

So you are saying on X-Drive I can run 19x9.5 et45 255/30/19 at the rear, and what wheel and tire size up front?

Yes, both xDrive and RWD can run the 19x9.5 ET45 with 255/30/19 at both stock and mildly lowered ride height.

The recommended fitment for the front would be 19x8.5 ET35 with a 225/35/19 tire.

So I am about due for new tires all around, I am seriously thinking of biting the bullet and just going for 235/35/19F and 265/30/19R

I am currently on stock suspension, but probably in the next few months plan on going with Dinan springs.

I am running VMR V804 19x8.5 et35F and 19x9.5 et45R, currently bone stock. I am a little worried about rubbing under harder driving/suspension compression. I think before lowering etc, I would probably do some mild fender rolling, and get the M4 LCA/TS for a bit of extra negative camber up front.

I noticed a couple of people have gone up to these sizes, so curious on any inputs on anyone that has run this for a bit, if it is feasible? Or am I heading for a world of headaches?

I have the recommend VMR wheel setup, 19x8.5 and 19x9.5, with 225's up front and 255's in the rear, lowered on Dinan springs.

I've had these on for the last few months with zero rubbing on the street.

During this past weekend's trip to Tail of the Dragon, I finally received some rubbing (front and rear) during some very hard cornering. I haven't pulled the wheels off to see where it was rubbing, but I'm going to guess on the fender liner itself. It was very very mild, and this was during driving the car at 9/10's on some fairly crazy roads with bumps, dips, banked corners, etc.
