E90 M3 Winter Wheels (270M) on my F87

BFLY · 11-22-2016, 12:51 PM

I’m looking to fit BMW 270M winter wheels on my F87. The 270M has an offset of 20ET square.
I believe, I need 30ET front and 35ET rear. Will adding a 10mm and 15mm spacer respectively work?

Lots of info out there, but I'm not finding the answer.

Adding a 10mm spacer to a ET20 makes it a ET10.
They should fit fine ET wise as they are but I don't know if they will clear the brakes or not.

Thanks for clarifying, I just looked here http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Wheel-Offset-Calculator# which helped.

I'll test fit them tonight then, since spacers aren't needed. Should be able to tell pretty quickly if they clear the brakes.

Very happy my winters fit!

No spacers needed, they clear the brakes beautifully.

A little tucked in, which is nice for the winter, keeps the salt and sand within the wheel well.

Those are great looking winter wheels.

Thanks! I'm very happy this worked out, saved me some money for some performance bits.
It snowed again here... got them on just in time!

BFLY Thank you for your post man! I had the same question and found your 3d.

Planning to install my 270M wheels on the M2 this winter

btw do you have any other pictures of the car with these wheels on taken from a distance? just curious on how it looks =)

Good work thanks for sharing - what size(s) winter tyres do you have on yr 270m ?

Hi,

Just checking, these fit perfectly right? No rubbing etc? Standard car?

Thanks.

It's really a pain to watch. M2 deserves something better than this.

You haven't lived until you've played around in snow with a performance RWD car.

Cars are for driving! These aren't one of 20 Ferraris or anything.
