i did a test fit on my rears last night (19x11 +26) and the inside of the wheel looked extremely close to the plastic part of the inner fender. So close it just seems like there is no way that it wouldn't be rubbing with a tire on there, could barely fit my finger between the space. From what i understood, this size/offset should have no issue with rubbing on the inside of the rear so I'm a bit confused. Will the clearance in that spot change when the car is sitting on the ground instead of jacked up with the suspension hanging like it was when i tested the wheels? Or should i be concerned here? I really don't want to have to use spacers

OK - going with the following set-up:
2013 E93 M3 Stock suspension 19x9.5 (F) et 22 with a 255-265/30 or 255/35 19x10.5 (R) ET 25 with a 285-295/30 or 285/35 Tires will be Michelin PSS Will this rub? Can I run the 265 and 295 tire with 35 sidewall and be safe from rubbing? Thanks in advance. |

Are you talking about the plastic area inside the wheel arch where the two panels meet (there's a limp of plastic on the inside)? If so... I had the same issue and yes, it rubbed going over bumps at speed. In the end I just trimmed some of the plastic away et voila.... No rear rubbing...

Thanks for the link and the feedback. Yeah... I thought the same thing when I opted for the 265/30s in the first place but I do a) want to reduce the wheel/gender gap and b) reduce the staggered wheel size gap so maybe I'll go 275/30s when they're due for a change and in the meantime look at a KW HAS kit!

Hmmm... I'm certainly no expert but it does look tight to me. If I get a chance I'll jack mine up and have a look over the weekend but certainly my rubbing issue was on the outside of the wheel (against the plastic guard liner).

im wondering if it was only because with the car jacked up the suspension is hanging. It makes sense to me that the clearance in that spot would be bigger with the control arm straight out compared to when its hanging down at an angle while the car is jacked up.
