Has anybody run the F8X M3/M4 Rear Fitment?

18x11 +34

What tire sizes are people running?

And also, is the concavity on the 18x11 +34 the same as the 18x10.5 +22?

Also interested in this. 18x11 would be awesome.

Here's mine on 19" TE 37sl

There were custom 18x11 +18 TE37s before. A shop ordered a bunch and got custom fitment and offset, but they're extremely rare.

The +18 doesn't allow for an extremely wide tire without camber in the rear either. The +34 would actually be perfect for those trying to run a large rear tire.

A small spacer would help any strut clearance issues.

Hi guys, just upgraded from my 135i to my M3. Will be going with Bc racing br coilovers. I have a set of te37s laying around that I wanted to get redrilled and throw onto the M.

18x9.5 +12
18x10.5 +15

Will this work? I would like to run a meaty tire set up and willing to roll fenders (no pull) and adjust camber if more than neutral camber is needed.

What tires size would u guys recommend? Thanks in advance!

Why would you need to re-drill coming from a 135i to an M3? They're both 5x120 already.

Yes, this would work fine.

If you have front and rear camber adjustment, you could run a 265/285 setup, but it's quite aggressive. I reckon you'll need -3 Front Camber, coupled with probably about -2.5~ in the rears. Although this depends on how low you are.

These are wheels were off of my turbo mr2, not my 1ner.

Now would this be a 40 series tire or 35? Thank u very much for the feedback!

Will 18's clear 380mm Brembos front and rear? I hear 380mm BBK's clear, but I believe Brembo calipers are larger.

265/35/18

40 series would be too tall.

9.5, 10.5

Diamond Black SL's

Nice rolling shot:thumbsup:

Excited to finally be able to contribute to this thread, been wanting to own TE37s since I put them on all my cars in Gran Turismo 2 back in middle school

Need a solid from anyone in the TE37 crowd running any of the following tire sizes (in Michelin):

Front: 275/30R19
Rear: 295/30R19

What specs are your wheels (width and offset), what suspension are you running, and do you experience any rubbing?

I was originally planning on running 265/30R19 front and 285/30R19 rear on my 19x9.5 ET23 front / 19x10.5 ET23 rear TE37 Ultra's, which would have been perfect for me since I want to maintain the original 20mm stagger and refuse to ever put a 255 width tire on a 9.5" wheel since I absolutely can't stand even the slightest amount of stretch. However, I then realized that I misread the initial release sizes that will be available for the Michelin PS4S :\

Basically, I'm wondering if I can afford to size-up to 275 front / 295 rear without worrying about rubbing, etc. If I cannot, I suppose I'll just have to settle for 10mm less stagger and go with 265 front / 275 rear and deal with any tram-lining that results.

Thanks gents!

I ran this with 19"x9.5/10.5+22. Zcp suspension, stock camber settings. Only rubbed on big deeps at speed. If I set edc to sport it wouldn't even rub in those places. That's without anyone sitting in the back at least.

Much thanks man! I'm running Ohlin's R&T /w Vorschlag camber plates. Hopefully I'll be able to adjust camber accordingly and have no issues with rubbing.

I have a square set up of 18x10.5 ET22 on my E92 M3, 265x35x18 on the front and lowered with KW V3. I want to move up to 275x35x18 in the front, but my current tire is rubbing slightly on the spring.

Should I go with 3mm or 5mm spacers?

Can someone help me find a te37 setup that is not flush with the fender. I love the te37 on the e90 but I want it tucked where the factory wheel are. Or just inside the fender lip is preferable. The fact I cannot find a volk that sits inside the fender is frustrating and has me looking at other less appealing designs. I notice most go with 9.5 +22 and 10.5 +22. They look great from the profile but from the front or rear at a sought angle, they look like they stick out too far. I'm mostly speaking of the fronts. I've been searching pic threads one after the other.

Maybe, can they be ordered with a custom offset you tuck them better?

Maybe try the non M sizes.

Good suggestion, thank you. I have been looking at those as well. I haven't found a combo yet. I will let you know if I find something .
