Killer looking setups, though, folks!
The spokes attaching to the lip of the wheel is part of the design and makes the wheel appear bigger. It's like the opposite of a dished wheel that ends up looking smaller than it is. I wouldn't want it any other way.

You can't roll M3 fenders, they're plastic. Spend a couple extra minutes and some effort on researching. Wheel/tire fitment is well known and there are even a couple sticky threads that would answer your questions.

Those are C5V SDCs.

None, the pics of the Red E92 M3 is my car with OEM ZCP. You can't roll front fenders as they are a composite and the rear 1/4 panels are steel but you don't need to do anything.

I am also considering getting the F14.

Looking at getting: front - 19x10 +20, rear - 19,11 +25. What tire size would you recommend? Will there be any issues with rubbing?

I know very little about offsets and wheel/tire ratios.

I think you misunderstood what I meant; sorry.

I really do like that the spoke is part of the lip. I just don't like that the spoke seems to be extruded from the lip instead of smoothly transitioning and being absorbed. The transition from spoke to lip is "blocky."

BUT... I would still rock a set

Why the large delta in tire widths front : rear? Fronts look a little stretched, but good otherwise!

I was trying to get as aggressive of a setup I could. Really like the concave look. What was recommended I go to that setup by the retailer.
The 245 in the front is too small for sure. Id like to go to 265 but itll stick out way to much, so i might be able to fit a 255 hard to find some good tires right now with those specs.

All these people worrying if 9.5 will fit, here's some 19x10 SDC inspiration pics

Front: 19x10 +19 275/30/19
Rear: 19x11 +27 295/30/19

I did end up changing to 265/30/19 on the front later due to very slight rubbing under heavy compression on the track because KW clubsport springs are so short, but had NO rubbing before that

Took a few close up pictures of the front wheel with 265 tires. As you can see, there is a tiny bit of stretch. Also, for reference, I'm running 1.5 degrees of camber.

I don't recommend 19x10 with 20 offset for the front. It pokes out by 1/2". I think i will crack my fender if i lower my car.

Per Forgestar - the highest offset you can get on the front to clear the brake calipers with SDC is 19x10 +20 or 19x9.5 +13. Anything higher and you lose SDC which is the main appeal of these wheels. Mine just barely poke out with 275 PS4S tires and -1.6 camber, definitely less than half an inch. A lot of people run these with aftermarket suspension and I have yet to see anybody talk about cracked fenders. You could just get some camber plates and dial in more camber, around -2.0 should eliminate any poke you are seeing. A 265 tire would also help, but then the fender gap would be more pronounced on stock suspension due to less sidewall.

I'm very happy with the fitment of my 19x10 +20 fronts and 19x11 +33 rears. Wouldn't have it any other way.

Looking into getting f14s (had them in bronze burst on my 370z in 19x9f on 275 tires, 19x11 rears SDC on 305, loved them) for my e90 this summer. I'm on stock suspension, don't want to lower it. Using an online offset calculator, if I wanted to match the "flushness" of oem 220m with 15/12mm spacers, I calculated the following:
Fronts: 19x9.5 +27
Rears: 19x10.5 +24

As for tires, I'll go with the minimum width required for the rim width, while being as close in diameter as the oem set up.

So are my numbers right? Ie they'd match/work just like oem style 220 with 15/12mm spacers? I searched and searched and can't seem to find a "standard" set up for aftermarket wheels on stock suspension for the e90 (found plenty for e92).

I think the rear on e90 has a tiny bit less room, so 10.5 would be a safe bet. Tbh though if you're never gonna lower it, I wouldn't worry about rubbing with 11s on the rear. And the front is the same as the E92 afaik, so you probably would want to go with something more like +20 with only a 9.5. Even at 0* camber you shouldn't poke.

Thanks for the reply. From seeing photos of oem 220 with 15mm/12mm, looks very flush front and back. So if I went with 9.5 front +20 offset, wouldn't that be equivalent to a 22mm spacer up front on the oem 220 wheels? (15mm spacer plus 7mm since +20 offset on 9.5 sticks out 7mm further than the 27 offset I calculated for a matching 9.5).

My goal is to achieve similar flushness as the 15/12mm setup on oem 220m wheels. I can't seem to find anyone who's gone with similar width/offsets as what I've calculated, probably because most lower their car with aftermarket wheels haha

If that is the case, any wheel experts able to confirm my numbers would match the oem 220m set up with spacers?

You want SDC, right? Read my post right above yours:

No need to do math when there are literally only two sizes that will fit in the front due to the concavity of the wheel. You have much more flexibility in the rear.
