Hey Guys
I will like to switch out my rims for aftermarket rims. What is the largest size with correct offset that will fit?

i have measured it with iForged and I believe you can go up to a 11 and it will clear with the correct offset, but it is not necessary at all.

It will be interesting to see how big wheels people will be putting on their F10's.
Wonder how wide the hella flush guys could put on it.

DPE suggested that I go with 9 up front and 10.5 in the rear for a flush fitment. I listened to them because I had no idea on what to do with offsets since the car is so new.

i have the 9F, 10.5R for my forgestar too. I found them pretty wide already and don't want to go any wider. we do a lot parallel parking here and i have a tough time not to scratch my rims with the set up.

Does anyone know if 9.5 in the front would sit flush with the correct offset or is 9.5 pushing your luck ???

I wouldn't do it. a 255 tire up front would REALLY be pushing it... i wouldn't go higher than 245.
