Will these rims be fine for an F10?

letsbepolis · 11-16-2023, 05:01 AM

So I am interested in getting come new wheels for my car. Was having a look at some 20''x10.5j ET30 alloys and putting some 275/30 tyres on it. Will I have any troubles with this fitment and if there can be some issues what can I do to make it work?

Fronts will definitely not fit.

Will narrower rims work for the front, I don’t mind a stretched look on the wheels.

You will either poke by a ton, or rub the tires against the inner suspension components. Pick your poison. 275's on the front is just REALLY wide.

So the solution would be to get narrower tires?

Solution is to buy wheels that fit

10.5 wide wheel up front will not work

What is the maximum upfront for the F10 in that case?

There is no pre determined maximum size.

But do a little research, and see what people have run. There is alot to read in the past ten years for various wheels on the F10.
