Really I just wanted to know if anyone knows the max change in inner wheel clearance and outer wheel position for stock Z4M without having to customize the car, but there are a couple additional questions below...
I have a bone stock Z4M coupe that I am shopping for wheels for. I have been scouring this forum for some info on what the maximum change to inner wheel clearance and outer wheel positioning before there is tire rub, but haven’t found it. I believe the stock wheels are 18x8 ET 42 front and 18x9 ET 30 rear, and there were two sets of wheels that I was looking at. I have listed them below as well as the differences to inner clearance and outer position (that I found on one of the wheel offset calculators that was posted somewhere on this forum).
First set:
Front: 19x8.5 ET35, 1mm more inner clearance, 13mm extended outer position
Rear: 19x9.5 ET35, 11mm less inner clearance, 1mm extended outer position
Second set:
Front: 19x8.5 ET35, 1mm more inner clearance, 13mm extended outer position (same as first set)
Rear: 19x9.5 ET30, 6mm less inner clearance, 6mm extended outer position
0r
Rear: 19x9.5 ET22, 2mm more inner clearance, 14mm extended outer position
While I would like to know whether these wheels will fit or not, I guess more importantly I wanted to know if anyone knows what the max changes are in inner clearance and outer position before there is rubbing. I know that this depends on tire size (and on tire brand as well, but I can’t begin to guess what tire differences are), so I guess lets just go with the tire size that Tire Rack recommends which is 245/35-19 front and 275/30-19 rear.
Also, Tire Rack seems to think that I can put rear wheels on that are as wide as 10.5”. Is this legit? Tire Rack normally seems to be right, but 10.5” seems really wide (and actually in one case, 11”) for this car.
