Question: M4 437M Forged Rims on F10 (535i xDrive)



Will the following fit on a F10 model car:

Front rims are 9x19 ET:29, rear rims are 10x19 ET:40 ?

In addition, which 19" size tires would fit for those rims?

Thanks.

Front 9x19" ET29 rear 10x19" ET40 fits fine on F10!

Tire sizes with xDrive:
F: 245/40-19
R: 285/35-19
or
F: 255/40-19
R: 295/35-19

They actually fits the f10 better than the OEM f10 wheels.

Don't the 245/40-19 fronts look stretched on the 437M 9" wheel?

Thanks, Ed

I just returned from having my M3 437M wheels installed with new tires on my F10. Man! What a difference in ride. My 2011 F10 535i X Drive M Sport came stock with 245/40-19 tires. I was going to install 245/40-19 back on the front but noticed they were slightly stretched on the stock 8.5" wheel and was worried that they would really be stretched on the 437M 9" wheel. I hate the stretched look.
I decided to go with Continental DWS06 Plus (Non-Runflat) 285/35-19 rear and 255/40-19 fronts, .1" difference in height. I was sweating it thinking the 255s might rub but they don't. Below are the pictures. The car has not been lowered nor will it ever be as long as I own it.

Thanks, Ed
Not at all, sure it could benefit from 255 but 245 is perfectly within spec for 9” wide. And it’s if a wide summer compound even less of a concern.

Yesterday I tried the 437m wheels 19*9ET28 ,19*10ET40, 255/35. When I installed . It scratched the front caliper and unable to rotate. Mine is 2014 550i. Do we have to use any spacers to protect the caliper ?

550i brakes are bigger so thats why others with 535i don't have a problem. I don't think anyone has mentioned this before so you might be the first to find out sorry!

Did the rears fit ok though?
