Just curious…is this a “cold” request…or have you done research about this wheel and what model they fit. Are you mounting them on an M6 or a 650i…and are you looking for a staggered or square set?
It matters since the rear wheel offsets for the M6 is different than the rear wheel offset for the 650i.

Qsilver7 To be honest I haven’t done much research on it I just love the look of the wheel… I had them before on a previous 650i had no issues what so ever but I’d be interested to know if this would be problematic?
Also I am aware that the set comes staggered but I’ve never looked into what wheel size works best for my car.. I know that sounds bad please don’t judge me 🙏🏾 |

Thanks for the additional info. Did you have a square set on your previous car (same wheel/tire size on all 4 corners)?
The 433M style wheel as it comes on the M6 is a staggered set that has a rear wheel with a 19mm offset. The regular f12/f13/f06 coupes and sedans have a rear wheel offset that is usually around 44mm on the 20" wheel offerings. This can become an issue if you attempt to mount the rear 433M wheel on a non-M six series because the low offset will push the wheel out toward (or past) the fender by approx 44mm (almost 2 inches if you mount a 295/30/20 tire). I would recommend mounting FOUR front wheels in a square setup. Since the front 433M wheel has a 31mm offset and is 9.5" x20...if you mount all four wheels with a 265/30/20 tire...this setup should fit with no issues on both the front & rear axles. (is this the setup that is on the white f13 in the pic you posted?) I agree, the 433M style wheel is a beautiful wheel and looks absolutely gorgeous on any F-chassis six series. If I had the "spare change"...I'd love to mount a set of these wheels. Just be sure you are good with the rear wheel/tire setup so that you won't have any issues with too much poke. Or if poke past the fender doesn't bother you...then never mind my worry.

Qsilver7 Wow thanks a lot for the info I’m definitely your “BMW for dummies” type of owner lol I’m just getting my feet wet with forums and taking my ownership experience to the next level I want to learn more about my car so I really appreciate you taking the time to school me on proper wheel fitment and giving me your opinion what would work best for my car
The white car was a 2012 650i Msport when I bought the car it came with 433M wheels already on it but it was definitely staggered because when I would bought tires the rears where wider than the front I loved that car so much but I got tired throwing away money on mechanical issues now I’m on my 2nd 650i marriage lol hoping to do things right this time around this is why I joined the forum I want to get more hands on build my knowledge |
