Anyone running Wheels with ET40 Offset?

xxpanipuri · 08-24-2016, 04:55 PM

if so what tire size are you running?

I'm lowered on ACS Springs (1")

currently i have 285/30/20 in the rears (hankook ventus v12)

Switching to Michelin Pilot Super Sport and wanted to see if i can go to 295/30/20 without any rubbing.

My wheels are ET40 in the rear they are 20x10.5 (vorsteiner vff 102)

any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

i'm running a 38mm offset but on a 21x11 wheel 295's

Any rubbing?

lsturbointeg · 08-25-2016, 02:59 PM

Nope...I'd take a picture to show how much clearance there is but the car sits pretty low lol

xxpanipuri · 08-25-2016, 03:33 PM

What type of tires do you have??

lsturbointeg · 08-25-2016, 07:57 PM

Accelera Phi's

My rears are 20x10.5 ET40, with 285/30R20 Michelin AS3+

Rear tire has a mile stretch, will likely go with a 295 next time.

Lowered on ACS Springs.

Miles of clearance.

so looking under the car finally i got plenty of clearance...shoot, i probably could get away with 305's if i really tried

You mean on the suspension side or fender side?

Suspension side...fender side I would have to raise my coilovers to clear. Not that I would put 305's but here's a picture I took but I'm sure it'll clear. I know on the M5 board guys are running 305's no problem but I'm sure there's suspension differences between us and them

Yes, the room in the rear wheel arches are really wide. It would make more sense to make the trunk a bit wider.

lsturbointeg · 08-30-2016, 12:23 PM

Yeah, plenty of room but I'm assuming with 305's the speedometer would be off?

xxpanipuri · 09-01-2016, 02:27 PM

No rubbing with a full load of passengers and luggage in the trunk?

That i don't know, but my car hardly gets used for that, as we use my wife's mdx for long trips and such. and my kids are usually in the back seat they are 8 and 3

But from the looks of it seems like there is plenty of clearance.

lsturbointeg · 09-02-2016, 11:06 PM

Take some pictures!

xxpanipuri · 09-03-2016, 04:52 AM

Proper pics coming soon!!! Need to install the m5 diffuser next weekend and then give her a good detail at some point soon!

Looks great!

xxpanipuri · 09-03-2016, 03:21 PM

I forgot how awesome these tires are. Took it out on some roads I used to take my e39 out on, and although this car didn't handle as well as the e39 with after market suspension , it's still a lot better than stock and closer to my e39 540 stock.

I think they also do a great job filling out the wheel wells.

Looks real good. What are labor charges nowadays for spring install? Im in chicago.

My shop charged me around 850 installed including the price of the ACS Springs.

took them about 2 hrs and they also threw in an alignment for me (which i came back for 300-400 miles later)
