18x10 et33 squared on e92 M3

LukesM · 05-31-2019, 11:24 AM

Hey,

Just picked up a set of 18x10 EC-7 wheels for a good deal but they are et33 offset from an F80 M3.

Just wondering if anyone is running these on an e92 M3 and what spacers they are running. I know spacers will be required in the rear and 10mm would bring it to et23. Not sure about spacers for the front.

Car will be lowered on eibach springs and will be running 275/35/18 tires.

You'd want at least 15mm in the rear, ideally 18.

Front would be good with a 5mm.

You might want a spacer in front as well. If you're running an aftermarket suspension setup, Apex recommends ET20 in the front.

yeah if yer on street coilovers with helper springs, you will probably have clearance issue from wheel/tire to strut. as mentioned above you may have to run 10-15mm spacer in front.

Richbot · 05-31-2019, 01:11 PM

It'll fit, technically, depending ont he tire adn which strut you're using up front, but yeah, giving up some track width and inner clearance especially up front

If it were me I'd just buy two pairs of 12mm spacers and call it good. If your springs are on stock struts up front you'll have plenty of room.

If you don't like the front spacer being that big I agree a 5 would work too for most tires

I've run that size before with a 285 all around. Believe I ran a 15mm rear and a 10mm front with that setup.

LukesM · 05-31-2019, 01:51 PM

Thanks for all the reply’s guys. I am running stock struts with eibach springs.

doogee · 05-31-2019, 02:45 PM

If it's any help, I run 18x10 ET25 ARC-8's with an 18mm spacer in the rear. So ET7. No rubbing whatsoever.

Wow. That sounds aggressive. What suspension and rubber?

Ohlins R&T with Eibach Springs 600/800
Around 2.8 degrees camber in the back.

265/35/18
275/35/18

I believe the sedan has more room for fitment than the coupe though.

Ok thanks for the info.

On an E90M3 with H&R Sport springs lowering about 1”, I run rear 295/30/18 on 18x10.5 ET22 with no spacer and stock rear camber. Front are 18x9.5 ET27 265/35/18 with no spacers. Never tried to put the rears up front — would probably need spacers.

LukesM · 06-26-2019, 10:51 AM

Hey,

Wanted to revive this thread since I am considering running 275/40/18 squared. Has anyone ran the higher side wall in a squared setup?

Prices seem to be better in the 275/40/18 sizes.
