I just went through the same thought process. First for tires 245/285 is what you'll want because a 295 will rub. Next fitment, 2014 models need a spacer. Some have used a 3mm or 5mm without issues but you run the risk of vibrations at high speed because the wheel is no longer contacting the hub much if at all (i.e. no longer hubcentric). A 10mm is the smallest spacer with a hub on it to prevent the issue, but you may poke out a bit up front. I decided against it on my 2014, but would love to see how it looks on yours if you get them set up.

Could the fronts from the M6 be used, and rears from an M5? Then spacers wouldn't be needed for the front.

I believe they're 20x9.5 31 offset. Or, maybe they won't be flush?

But then you only have 0.5" stagger between the front and rear wheels.

That's a real bummer, is there a picture of those fronts with a 10mm spacers somewhere?
Can't find one.
I don't want the wheels to stick out of the car

I couldn't find any anywhere, that's why I decided to pass on them. But it may be possible, 5mm more than the flush 5mm spacer which isn't huge.

Yeah, pre-facelift is great, they just mount right up and look amazing. Nice set there.

Does anyone know if this setup will fit a Non-M 2013 535i X-Drive? Need to know if I'll need spacers, etc...

Hi, I recenty bought F11 M550d LCI, which share same front brakes as 550i. I have a chance to buy used 343M wheels, but I need to void using spacers upfront, since 3mm or 5mm are not hub centric and on top of that BMW wheels have beveld hubs, thus the risk for vibrations is high. I came to idea to buy used 550i pre-LCI front brake calipers and brackets. Do you think this are interchargable? Can someone get part numbers for this?

Best angle to show 343m concavity. But look from the straight/side I don't like so much, they somehow look to "empty" and I prefer some more "full" wheels.

The oem m5 wheels will rub on the rear fenders with sumitomo tires 285/30/20 in rear. Haven't tried going with 275/30/20 but that might be the best bet. I have 255/35/20 upfront those are okay. I have a 2013 535i with the m package

Man your 343’s stick out a lot. Are those m6 343’s. Mine don’t stick out that much.

Has anyone ran 2 pairs of fronts in a square setup on an xdrive car? I know I could run 245/285 and be perfectly fine with staggered wheels but I'd rather be safe than sorry

What's been your experience?

Been following this thread recently. Looks like a lot of folks with the same thinking I have. But, for those who have applied it, I'm curious on your experience and results so far? I have a '14 550 Xdrive and I want to put 343's staggered with 245 fronts and 285 rears with a 5mm spacer in the front. If you've done this already, what's been your experience? Curious before I pull the trigger. Thanks.
