Installed 19" M3/M4 wheels on Z4M!

So I've went through half a dozen sets of wheels and tires to come to a final decision on which to keep and which works well. I came to conclusion and installed new M3/M4 19" wheels (black) with Michelin PSS. 255/35R19x9 ET29 (Front) 275/35R19x10 ET40 (Rear). I only had rubbing issues in the back cause of my chamber degree, but a 10mm spacer solved it! Will post more pics on demand!

Sorry if the picture quality is bad, always have an issue uploading with my phone. Cheers!

im guessing those will rub massively when driven hard... + 24 upfront isn't really viable on this car!

No rubbing AT ALL actually, I have +22 prior to this and still zero issues. Only rubbed with my 275 square setup, after switching to 255, it's been perfect.

Did you have to roll any fenders? What's your front/rear camber settings?

Very interesting to hear that 275/35R19x10 ET24 is rubbing on the inside edge with near stock camber settings. I would have expected the front 255/35R19x9 ET24 to rub on the outside fender

according to bmws own literature the front is ET29.... rear ET 34 ( makes sense since you added 10mm spacer) so you either are mistaken or you have reps.

Might be mistaken, cause they're 100% original bought them from the dealership and the invoice said ET24 F&R. Idk why.

Apparently I was given wrong info on the offset, it's not ET24 squared. It's ET29 front ET40 rear.
