Forgestar f14 fitment

Hi Guys,

I need a new set of wheels for my f10 (2011 535i sedan). I want to run a squared setup so I can rotate tires. I am wondering if the f14 19" x 9.5 SDC (super deep concave) will fit all the way around. I was thinking 255/40/19 all the way around but am open to other suggestions. I'm still unsure about offset but I will have the company choose that for me. My car is on OEM suspension and I don't plan on lowering it. I just want to prevent any rubbing, clear the front calipers, etc. If anyone is currently running it let me know what you think or if this is even possible.

Thanks

If you look there's a lot of guys running these wheels who also list there size and offsets. if the company is setting your wheel specs up I would inquire first if they can do SDC on 19's but I've never seen anyone with that? Most are on 20's

Check out this link as this was the only way to get SDC all the way around

Yeah I read through that entire thread and it seemed almost everyone was running 20" wheels. That's why I thought I would ask about 19." Forgestar sells SDC in 19" 9.5, but I did hear back from a shop in CA that said it wouldn't work without modifications, which I'd rather not do.

My next step is to see if I can run 19" deep concave all the way around, or to do deep concave infront and SDC inback with all the same size tires, but I am not sure if that would look normal. I really want to be able to rotate the tires, but also have the concave look.

I think 19's are too small! U gotta go with 20's for that SDC look. If the shop told you that and you don't want to do the recommended modifications than why pursue going with 19's?

Well I'm not anymore, I just wanted second opinions on here. As far as 20" wheels, the roads in NY where I'll be driving this are terrible and I'd rather not risk expensive wheels for looks. They told me 19" would fit with deep concave all around so I will do that. While were on the topic, does anyone know if 255/40/19 tire would work on these wheels with a 2011 bmw 535i? Or would 255/35/10 be better?

Just for comparison reference on my 2012 535iX - I'm running taller tires with 245/45r19 fronts and 275/40r19 rear and paired with Macht Schnell spacers (12mm Front) and (15mm Rear). The taller tire does fill out the fender & wheel arches quite well for an F10 on 19s should you choose to go that route.

Can you upload a couple pictures of your car to see how the 19īs fit the f10? It seems everybody goes with 20" on these forums but I was thinking on doing exactly what you did... go with 19īs and taller tire.

Please post a couple pictures, I am very interested to see how it looks like.

Thanks!

K.
