will these tires OR wheels fit on my M2 ??

I have some barely used 403M wheels/tires in the garage.

F30 M-Sport 19" 403M Style Wheels
Front: 19x8 ET36
Rear: 19x8.5 ET47

Will they fit on my M2 over the larger brakes?

If not (because of brakes or offset not looking good), can I at least use the tires on the M2 wheels? I know they won't be as wide, but will they work?

Front: 225/40R19
Rear: 255/35R19

I'm not sure you would want an even narrorwer setup than stock. The m2 comes with 10" rear wheels.

Both will fit, but they will look very stretched. Go to tirerack.com to verify fitment. I don't think your handling will be as nice.

Front offsets are high so you may run into clearance issues. I wouldn't recommended reducing performance with those tires sizes.

For reference the stock car is 9et29 and 10et40. 245/35 & 265/35.

As far as tires yes they will fit on the wheels you mentioned, and they won't look stretched at ALL.

Lol, that is up to personal taste. I get comments about the stock wheels looking stretched.

Was he talking about those sizes on those 8" and 8.5" wheels, or on the stock wheels? I get comments too haha. It's similar to the Singer 911 stretch I think.

In the stock wheels they Will look stretched for sure. The 265/35 on the stock 10" is stretch from factory but it's pretty tasteful. A little much for me though.

On the smaller sized wheels he mentioned they will look less stretched than stock.

I'm going 265/35r19 and 285/35/r19 on 9.5's and 10's. Should be a nice balance without a buldge

I was under the impression he wanted to use them on the stock M2 wheels.

Any reason why you would go 20 less up front and 10 down at the back?

Could just sell them and pick up tires that actually fit
