Loving the looks of the ARC-8’s! Picking up a Z4MC next week.
Based upon reading through hours of fitment threads, it appears the following “should” work without rubbing...

18x9 ET30 with Hankook V12 245/35
18x10 ET25 with Hankook V12 275/35

Two things I’d like to verify if possible, though:
1) are camber plates necessary for a proper alignment on stock suspension?
2) will lowering on H&R springs potentially change the answer to #1?

Thanks in advance.

Thank you for the kind words Primm, and congrats on the new (to you) coupe!

The 18x9 ET30 and 18x10 ET25 setup is a very popular one, and will fit without much drama in the following configuration:

Front: 18x9" ET30 with 235/40-18 tires
Rear: 18x10" ET25 with 275/35-18 tires

• Front negative camber may be required.
• Popular fitment.
• 245/35-18 front tires may also be used with moderate negative camber.

In regards to your questions:

We would recommend opting for a camber plate if you intend on lowering the car at all over stock. At stock height, there will be moderate camber required (less than -1.8˚).

If you intend on fitting those H&R springs then you would need to run around -1.8˚ to -2˚ in front depending on how low you end up.

I hope this was helpful information, post up some pics of your car when you take delivery as well. I'm excited for you!

Thanks. It's actually a roadster (accidentally labeled as coupe in my previous post!) with only 11k original miles. Prior owner had an ESS supercharger installed, too. 😎
I pulled the trigger on a set of Arc8's, but ended up doing 19's in anthracite. Can't wait, so hurry that order along please!!

Finally got my anthracite 19's on yesterday. Now to address the ride height...
