Question Wheel manufacturers : where are the m3 specific wheels?

Still, virtually zero wheels offered in f8x specific offsets and widths

I can't be the only one who would buy something if it existed!

Seems to be similar to E92 M offsets.

They are not.

The stock rear offset on e92 zcp is et25. The stock rear offset on f8x is et40. 15mm difference, despite the same width.

Fronts are close between the e9x and f8x

Ah okay, I was going off aftermarket (Volk Te37 in this case) wheels.

Looks like VMR has something in the works. And they look amazing!

Seems like I've seen HRE on most. Look at Tag Motorsports. They have a few, but running 20"

HRE and MORR make custom offset to your preference or their own specifications. They have been available for a while.

Yeah - with a stock sized tire, you can get away with e9x offsets, but you end up with a stretched tire. For me, the point of new wheels is to go with wider tires for more traction on acceleration, so I'm waiting for some tasty 19x10et25/19x11et40 wheels so I can run fatty rear tires.

Those with CCBs have it even worse, almost no 19"s fit.

well, I sent you guys a PM and an email with no reply

id like to learn more, but I cant get a response

shame about the widths of the spunforged, too narrow imo

The F8x M presents several unique challenges from both a brake packaging and wheel geometry standpoint. Companies like HRE are uniquely aligned to respond very quickly to new requirements like the ones that the F8x chassis presents. For the time being bespoke solutions from HRE are bar none the best choice.

Fortunately for our clients IND has installed literally every wheel in our inventory on the F8x cars, and we are at this point intimately familiar with the suspension and brake systems of the car, as well as the car's wheel well packaging. We can help guide a client to the appropriate HRE sizes and create a bespoke solution for each F8x M.

With that said, more choices are also coming within the year from manufacturers like BBS.

I have actually been hosting executives from BBS North America and BBS Germany yesterday and today, and naturally our main topic of conversation has been the F8x M.

I have been working with BBS to develop some new ideas for this car in the correct sizing, but BBS' biggest strength also results in a longer time-to-market: BBS will not release a product that they do not have complete confidence in.

For this reason, BBS has actually been testing it's new ideas for the better part of 6 months with road testing, chemical testing, and load testing in lab environments. All I can say for now is that the new BBS product will be absolutely revolutionary in several ways, and will surpass many currently available wheel technologies.

BBS also has a very appealing lower cost option coming in the near future.

In the interim, HRE is one of the few high quality wheel manufacturers that can create wheels for the car. Their ability to build custom sizes and offsets has enabled HRE to be ahead of the curve a bit!



I know that this type of cryptic language can be frustrating, but if I have learned anything in over a decade in this industry, it is that being the first to market typically comes at a tremendous cost, not only to the suppler but to the consumer as a result of a less than perfect product.
