E65 19” or E92 M3 wheels on an F11?

Has anyone done this? I’ve googled a bit but can’t find anything at all apart from a Polish site with a blue F11 but it isn’t clear if they are a staggered set or 4 fronts.

Back story - I’m after some OEM wheels for my F11. I’ve tried E60 style 172m wheels which are too aggressive at the front but could still go a bit further out at the rear.

Those are 8.5” 18mm and 9.5” 32mm compared to the stock 8.5” 33mm and 9” 44mm.

That lead me to doing a search for wheels that are around mid 20s to 30mm at both the front and the rear. All I’ve been able to find is the E65 7 series which is 19x9 and 19x10 both 24mm and the E92 19” which are 8.5” 29mm and 9.5” 23mm.

I’d like to stick to 19” if possible and while a set of 345m 19x9 32mm and 19x10 34mm could be nice I’ve never seen a set here, all F10 M5 I’ve seen have had 20” wheels.

So has anyone tried either of these options and did they work or were too aggressive? I think they’ll both fit fine and give a really good OEM plus look.

Thanks in advance everyone!

Very poor photos but I managed to track down a set of 220M wheels last night for a test fitment.

I only bothered with the rears as they are fairly different to the front at 23mm offset 9.5" wide and annoyingly they were on a non-M E90 so were running really short 265/30r19 tyres for the rear so the tyre is very short but the wheels fit fine and will be something I'll look for over the next month or two.


Apologies for the quality of the pics - it was a dark and rainy day and the pictures were taken in a workshop, plus I only swapped on a single rear tyre so the height of the other tyres makes it have an even bigger wheel arch gap than it should.

Next step - finding a set to buy!
