Another Rim ET question

[M6Havana]

Sorry guys for another question on fitment

Im after a set of bmw wheels which come in at ET :20 for front wheel and 25 for rear wheel

How will these fit on my f13?

I believe your OEM rims have ET 44 so basically your new setup will stand out 24 mm (front) and 19 mm (rear).. not sure if is fit

front may work, but be on the aggressive side, rear will probably not but depends on the width, etc. what are the other specs of the wheel? im running 21x10.5 et 35 and with 295/25/21 I had to slightly camber the rear so it wont rub after lowering it.

Those are M offsets. They won't fit because the M3/4/5/6 fenders/quarters are flared.

No those are not M offset. For 343M rim:
M5 offset is 32 (f), 34 (r)
M6 offset is 31 (f), 19 (r)

Those are more like the E46 M3 offsets now that I think about it, my point was that they are aggressive enough to fit the M cars, but overly aggressive for the non M cars rear fitment, you could get away with the front, but anything under +30 is going to stick out a bit much on the rear.

likewise here. a 25 on the rear is asking for trouble unless you really know what you're getting into with camber and stretched tires...i strongly suggest you don't go that route

I've got 32et 9j fronts and 25et 9J rears winters on at the moment. Both fit very flush to the arches.

What width are you looking at? The 9j fronts are closer to the front suspension knuckle there is enough clearance but I wouldn't want to go any closer.

295 isn't stretched on a 10.5 rim. I added less than 1 degree of camber, 0.7-0.8 degrees of camber as it would rub slightly when I didn't. now im fine even with 4 people in the car. it looks and drives normal. definitely not what the jdm/vip/stance guys are doing.

What width are the wheels? Offset is the distance from the centerline of the wheel to the hub mounting face so that's kinda important.

i didn't say anything about 295 tires...i did say that a 25 offset would require stretched tires, camber adjustment, and lots of luck.

i had 245s on a 10.5" on my GS, and that got to be too much at my age.

my mistake, I thought you meant me running a 25 series sidewall.
