Will the 666M wheels fit on a e92 M3

I'm looking to upgrade my 219m wheels on my e92 M3. Has anyone tried putting the F8X Comp Wheels, 666m, on a e92 M3? I'm wondering if they fit, are spacers needed, etc.

Thanks!

The rear will need a 15mm spacer. The fronts are fine

I have to say, those 666M wheels are the most gorgeous OEM wheel I have seen in a LONG time.

OP, I would LOVE to see a real life pic of these wheels on an E92 M3!

Gotta do something about the front tire size a 265/30-20 isn't gonna fly up there with most setups

Rear's probably fine with stock F8x ZCP size though the stagger with a size that fits up front (245/30-20 or maaaayyyybe 255/30-20) is gonna be a lot bigger than stock

Good point...a 255/30/20 is still a 26.1" tall tire, that is going to be close. Usually anything over 26" up front can spell rub for a E9X car. Good news the offset isn't to aggressive so it may fit.

Thats the issue with 20" wheels and the E9X tire sizes are very limited.

I also agree the 666m wheels are the best oem m rims and they look great on the new m3/m4, but I think they look completely out of place on e9x just like m4 spoilers on an e92. 20's are way too big for an e92 imo. If you don't care about oem rims and just like the look you could always go with 19" reps but I still wouldn't suggest going that route.

Why did VMR choose such conservative sizing? Not even OEM ZCP sizes for the E92 (19x9 and 19X10)

Probably because no one with an m3 would downgrade to VMR wheels?

I have the VMR V810 flow formed wheels now for 4 years lighter and just as strong in a wider size and more aggressive offset.

Very happy with them..
