Excellent setup, my favorite so far. No spacers right? Can't find the weight of the rims...do you know? I'm looking for a set that I can slap R6's on and take to the track with these dimensions. Gotta be light. Thanks in advance.

No spacers. I can't remember the weight off hand but they are forged and aren't heavy that's for sure. With PSS 295/30 they rub a little on the side on big dips. A 27 or 30 offset would be better

do a quick look through this thread, and you will find similar fitments, and learn from there.
that's how forums work.

Ok now, what kind of fitment are you looking for?
8.5 up front is very weak, and the tire size you picked is going to look like a baloon on those rims.. if you want fitment like the guys in this thread.. copy their sizes.. look at one that looks amazing to you and see what sizes he is running..
I say 9/9.5 inches wide up front for sure..
and 10.5 minimum in back.

you came to the agressive fitment thread for a reason... not to look like every other boring bmw out there... so 8.5 up front is fail...
read more and look at the sizes everyone is running. you will see you can fit bigger wheels in the that will fill up your fenders.. and if you wanna run super wide tires you can run even wider with wider wheels.

I think 585's in the back are going to mount real easy but might rub.

Seriously though, You want at least 9.5 fronts and 10.5 rears.

Why 9.5" fronts? You can't fit anything wider than a 255/30/20 on the front without rubbing (on a 20" wheel that is, you can fit 275's in the front on 19" or 18" wheels). I wouldn't put a 255 on a wheel wider than 9" on a 20" because the sidewall is so short that it won't easily stretch. 20" wheels on an M3 have numerous downsides.. This is just one of them.

thanks and sorry for the typo.....I was looking at rims people where selling on different forums including this one. That is why I was asking, I didn't want to rub. I found what I was looking for. HRE 543R 20x9 f and 20x10.5 r I am going to do a 245 30 20 and 285 30 20. Thanks again!

Forget the 20's... seriously..if you dont drop it just right it'll look funny.... Certain cars dont look good in certain sizes.

19's are perfect for these cars, both 3 series and M's.
