I had these on my previous E90 3 series and had them out to wash and photograph for sale. Decided to try them on my '19 M240 xDrive, (stock Pirelli P7 runflats sorely undertired for this vehicle).
Apex arc-8, 17x9, et 30 shod with Bridgestone Potenza PP S04, 255x17x40. Quite a bit of poke for most folks, close to front strut, but no rub that I can detect. Stock suspension and factory alignment. I really like the aggressive poke! I've never been concerned about the look of wheel gap, so I guess it works for me visually. Drives like a dream compared to the stock setup, which I found tentative and squirrelly at moderate to high speeds. Tracks superbly on the highway and seems to turn in with less effort at lower speeds. If I were to buy new wheels for the car, I would probably go for a more traditional 18", 245 setup, but unless issues develop, I'm going to run them for the summer!

Need a higher offset on these cars, like et42. Could have the wheels machined down, maybe?
