12 E92 Comp pkg no other suspension mods

Looking to go with a 19x9.5 ET+23 19x10.5 ET+26 with 255/35 and 275/35. I doubt there would be any issue with rubbing. I was considering doing a 285/30 but don’t want to any chance of rubbing.

Thoughts?

2013 BMW M3  [0.00]
2013 E92 Competition

Current Setup

Tires: P Zero
Wheels: OEM ZCP 359M
Suspension: Stock

Front 245/35/19 - 15mm spacer
Rear 255/35/19 - 12mm spacer

Spent weeks looking through forums just to see what other fitments work. Decided to go with:

Michelin PSS or PS 4S
255/35/19
275/35/19

Seemed like the most common setup with the ZCP setup.

After all that research, guy at the shop throws me off and suggested:

255/30/19
275/30/19
(PS 4S)

So back to the forums to see what I can find. Not much on that fitment except for going a little wider.

Aside from a harsher ride anything else I should consider? Best to stick with 255/275 35 that so many others have gone with? Should I go a little wider if I go with 30?

Really no need to with the 255-275/30. The thinner sidewall will harsh the ride and leave more fender well gap. If you’re thinking of going wider like a 285 or 295 you definitely need the 30.

Thanks, I figured that so ordered 255 - 275/35 (PS4) but since they are on back order I have to wait a few extra weeks. Thanks!

That's the sizes I'm going with when my new wheels arrive. I'm buying Indy 500's though. I can't justify the costs of the Mich's. I'm don't drive it hard enough to notice a difference in performance and no current intentions to go to the track.

Just got them mounted yesterday. Kept the spacers on (15f/12r) and it's looks good.

Looking to get something similar -- any issues with the spacers and those new tires?

Haven't had any issues yet. Maybe a slight rub if I hit a bumpy road but nothing too serious.

Are you on stock zcp suspension? When you say rubbing, front or rear? I'm gonna do the same but wondering what size spacers I should go with. I don't plan on doing suspension anytime soon if ever. But I want the wheels to sit flush.

Yeah, on the stock ZCP suspension. Have 15f/12r and with the new tires it's rubbed a bit in the back on bumpy roads.

  • TE37S Saga Bronze
    18x9.5 +20
    18x10.5 +20
  • Concave TE37's is what you want!
  • Stock suspension no EDC, rubbing like a boss on dips in the rear.
  • Stock alignment.
  • Pilot Sports 295/35/18
  • Puffy Meaty Look

I should have went 285 instead, oh wells!

To make these work I'll have to do -3 degree camber in the rear and it will clear it with no rubbing.

So you're the one that ended up with my old wheels, I was wondering where they went. The guy I sold them to put them up for sale before I even shipped them

I ran 275/35 front and 285/35 rear with a 5mm rear spacer. I have -2.2 rear camber but I pulled my fenders years ago and the bumper tab is shaved smooth inside.

Yeah dude, he sold it because the tires cost too much. Plus he already had F14's. Then was iffy on selling the car, he finally sold his M3 last week, got a 340.

The wheels though, pretty clean! Perfect fitment, no spacers needed. Not bad for sloppy 2nds.

Style 220M
Front: 18mm spacer
Rear: 15mm spacer

Yokohama AD08R
245/35/19 front
265/35/19 rear

MCS 2WNR coilovers

-3 camber front
-2 camber rear

Loud rub in the rear on big compression impacts. Minor rub with turning angle at times. Think I need -2.5 rear camber, or will go down to a 12mm spacer in the rear.

There's a ton of room in the front, however.
