I'm back again for an update/question. I passed on the RSII's I posted earlier. Great looking wheels but not the look I want. I found these LM's with lugs for an attractive price that I plan on moving forward with.





But, I'm slightly iffy on fitment. Fronts are 19x10 et25 with 285/30's, and rears 19x11 et25 with 305/30's. They managed to fit on this guys E92, but his suspension looks stock. My E90 is lowered on H&R sport springs. Any cause for concern here?

Second question, how hard would it be to polish the lips, à la 6ixSpd's? Thanks.

For your question on fitment, I'm running the same exact spec wheels right now. However, my tire sizes are different and I'm able to still tuck. No gap like your pictures below.

I'm running 285/30 rear; 255/35 front. So slightly stretched.

I believe you can run 295/30 at the rear with some rubbing on the bumper tab. But that will take care of itself over time. Front you can probably run 265/30 or maybe even 275/30 with camber.

It just depends on the look you want. I personally like the combination of slight stretch (not meaty) and tucked (I can't stand wheel gap.)

Thanks for the info. I'm unfortunately out of country for awhile and unable to test fit and verify, so I'm not going to risk it at this point. A bit frustrating. If I had to guess, at the very least, the front will be too wide, but the rear is probably do-able since I'm running a 10.5 with 295 right now with no issue. I can only hope they're still available when I return, because I'd really like to have these on my car.

275/30 street tires (ie. PSS, not Cups or AD08R etc) on those fronts will fit without a single issue, even if dropped hard.

Rear you can use a 285/30 and be fine as well. That fitment is awesome for E9X M3s.

For comparison , I am running 10" ET8 275/30 in the rear and I have no rubbing on H&R Sport Plus. Your setup would have 4mm more clearance to the fender, offset by +5mm extra tread with a 285. So it will fit virtually identically.

Beautiful color combo! I'm a big fan of the BBS gold on the RI-A, although I'm biased. Hah.

5mm spacer front/rear?

Looking great slicer!! Have you changed control arm length in the rear to accommodate lowered ride height?

I have SPL adjustable arms all around. Not sure which arm you are referring to.
